OMNI CENTER SEEKS NOMINATIONS FOR
8th ANNUAL ARKANSAS PEACE & JUSTICE HEROES AWARDS

The OMNI Center for Peace, Justice & Ecology is a 501c3 nonprofit from Fayetteville, AR that educates, empowers and connects people to actively work for a nonviolent, sustainable and just world. Each year OMNI presents awards to five Arkansans who exemplify the broad community vision and commitment to service and humanity that help us move toward a more peaceful and just world. People such as this live in every part of the state, and OMNI hopes to recognize their work and celebrate their accomplishments.

For our 8th Annual Arkansas Peace & Justice Heroes Awards event, the OMNI Center Awards Committee seeks nominations for the award from all parts of Arkansas.
