About me: Survivor Corps is a global network of survivors helping survivors overcome war and rebuild their communities.
We believe no one is better positioned to break cycles of violence than those who have survived war.Our programs currently help conflict survivors in Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Burundi, Colombia, Croatia, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Georgia, Jordan, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Uganda, Rwanda, the United States and Vietnam.
Our signature peer support program connects survivors with survivor role models to offer encouragement and motivation. This is crucial to helping new survivors find hope, get jobs, and get on with their lives.
Through our community building programs, survivors rebuild communities broken by war by connecting diverse survivor groups and former enemies through collective action.
By training and organizing survivor advocates to campaign for their rights, survivors change the world by raising their voices together and addressing the challenges they face in life after war and conflict.
Survivor Corps co-founder and Executive Director JERRY WHITE is a global survivor activist who has dedicated his life to helping victims of violent conflict. While camping in Northern Israel in 1984, he stepped on a landmine, and he spent nearly six months in Israeli hospitals learning to walk on an artificial leg. He was a recognized leader of the historic International Campaign to Ban Landmines, co-recipient of the 1997 Nobel Prize for Peace. He has testified before the US Congress and the United Nations and appeared in hundreds of media interviews and profiles.
Who I'd like to meet: Survivors of all types of experiences, from all walks of life, who are dedicated to pursuing a hopeful way forward.
I am sending a wish, that the coming year bring bright sunshine and restful moonlight. That you and those you love may walk on the ground in your bare feet, and be rejuvenated. With the new year, comes new insight, and with each passing day a blessing of love and kindness remain constant. I am wishing happiness for you, not just on the forth coming New Year's Day, but throughout 2009. Remember that it is day by day, that we live and move forward, not year by year

Blessed Love ♪♫¸.•*..¨..*•.♪ ๑۩۞۩๑ ★☆Survivor Corps☆★ ๑۩۞۩๑ ♫¸.•*..¨..*•. ♪♫ - May you find serenity and tranquility in a world you may not always understand. May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism. Always know that there are those whose love and understanding will always be there, even when you feel most alone. May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a world of peace. May a kind word, a reassuring touch, and a warm smile be yours every day of your life, and may you give these gifts as well as receive them. Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending.
Teach love to those who hate, and let that love embrace you as you go out into the world. May the teachings of those you admire become part of you, so that you may call upon them. Remember, those whose lives you have touched and whose have touched yours are always a part of you, even if the encounters were less than you would have wished. It is the content of the encounter that is more important than the form.
May you not become too concerned with material matters, but instead place immeasurable value on the goodness in your heart. Find time each day to see beauty and love in the world around you. Realize that each person has limitless abilities, but each of us is different in our own way. What you feel you lack in the present may become one of your strengths in the future. May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility. Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience. May you find enough inner strength to determine your own worth by yourself, and not be dependent on anothers judgment of your accomplishments. May you always feel loved. I am honored to call you my friend!
