SUMMARY:HPJC Peacemaker Awards Ceremony 2026
DESCRIPTION:HPJC is excited to announce the recipients of our 2026 Peacemaker Awards\, and we hope you will plan to attend the ceremony on Sunday afternoon\, Oct. 11. \n\n\n\nThis year’s honorees\, in alphabetical order\, are: \n\n\n\nCouncil on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)\, Houston Chapter\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCAIR’s vision is to be a leading advocate for justice and mutual understanding. CAIR’s mission is to enhance understanding of Islam\, protect civil rights\, promote justice\, and empower American Muslims. \n\n\n\nCAIR works on Ensuring Justice and Equality — Safeguarding the rights and dignity of our community. Stand with us in ensuring justice and equality by reporting any civil rights violations or discrimination. \n\n\n\nCAIR-Houston\, along with HPJC and other civil rights organizations in our area\, was a co-sponsor of a civil rights conference here in 2014. HPJC was glad to work with CAIR then and we developed a very good working relationship. \n\n\n\nThe Houston Chapter of CAIR-Texas is a nonprofit civil rights and advocacy organization dedicated to promoting justice and mutual understanding. As part of the nation’s largest Muslim civil liberties organization\, the Houston Chapter operates alongside other Texas affiliates in Austin\, Dallas\, and San Antonio. Through its grassroots efforts\, the chapter works to protect civil rights\, address discrimination\, and empower American Muslims to actively participate in political and social activism. \n\n\n\nThe Houston Chapter of CAIR-Texas promotes a positive image of Islam and Muslims through media relations\, government affairs\, education\, and advocacy. Its work includes challenging negative portrayals of Islam\, advocating for Muslim concerns in legislative spaces\, and addressing Islamophobia. The chapter’s civil rights department provides legal assistance to individuals facing discrimination or hate crimes. At the same time\, its media and government affairs teams engage with journalists and policymakers to ensure balanced representation and community participation. \n\n\n\nThe Houston Chapter of CAIR-Texas also focuses on community empowerment and youth development. It organizes voter registration drives\, fosters interfaith dialogue\, and supports leadership programs to equip American Muslim youth with the tools to engage in civic and political life. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit\, the chapter relies on tax-deductible donations to continue its mission of advocating for justice and fostering inclusion in a diverse society. \n\n\n\nMore about CAIR is at cairhouston.com/houston  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHOPE Center Houston\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHope Center Houston stands for Compassionate\, Faith-Based Services for Our Neighbors Experiencing Homelessness. \n\n\n\nIt is a faith-based agency offering a day center\, emergency shelter\, and transitional housing for individuals experiencing homelessness in northwest Houston. It is supported by local businesses\, private donors\, and churches. We provide essential services Monday through Friday\, including breakfast and lunch\, laundry\, showers\, clothing\, medical and dental care\, computer access for job searches\, social services\, barbers\, counseling\, mentoring\, and faith-based programs led by various community leaders. \n\n\n\nIts Mission:  \n\n\n\nHope Center Houston is a faith-based community where compassion meets action. We provide a safe\, welcoming place for our homeless brothers and sisters—offering dignity\, meeting basic needs\, and guiding each individual with love\, encouragement\, and practical support on their journey toward healing\, restoration\, and lasting transformation. \n\n\n\nIts History: \n\n\n\nSince its founding\, Hope Center Houston has grown from a local initiative into a vibrant community hub providing meals\, hygiene services\, spiritual support\, and social service connections for Houston’s homeless population. In 2015\, members of St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church became aware of the growing number of people experiencing homelessness in our area. Forming a task force\, they created a 501(c)(3) corporation\, found a strip center location\, and began a homeless ministry. 1960 Hope Center opened its doors on August 29\, 2016. \n\n\n\nThe ministry quickly grew with support from more than 20 churches. Initially\, hospitality was our focus\, providing “Dignity Through Hospitality.” As the ministry matured\, we increased our services\, focusing on life development support\, including life-skills classes\, support groups\, one-on-one mentoring\, and spiritual support. “Compassion\, Commitment\, and Change” is our focus. \n\n\n\nMore than 3\,000 unique homeless individuals were served in the first three years of the Center. Several hundred made significant strides in overcoming addictions\, acquiring jobs\, and finding affordable housing. In August 2019\, we became Hope Center Houston and acquired a new facility\, allowing us to provide additional services and opportunities for supporting agencies to come alongside our mission. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrassroots Leadership\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Grassroots Leadership is a Houston and Austin Texas-based national social justice organization working to end the government’s use of for-profit prisons and reliance on mass incarceration\, detention\, and deportation policies. \n\n\n\nWe make up a beautifully diverse group of lived experiences reimagining a community without policing. Building spaces within our organization to learn from one another and remember that we are all learning to heal and develop abolition forward thinking. \n\n\n\nOur programs are fueled by our memberships\, which consist of lived experiences and allyship\, who work together to organize strategic campaigns throughout Texas. \n\n\n\nMore about Grassroots Leadership and its programs can be found  at www.grassrootsleadership.org  \n\n\n\nTwo of its major programs are Texas Advocates for Justice\, and Participatory Defense. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTexas Advocates for Justice unites formerly incarcerated individuals\, their  families\, people of all faiths\, and allies to build safe and resilient communities through organizing\, leadership training and connections to community resources. \n\n\n\nFor more information about their activities\, see the Texas Advocates for Justice web page \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nParticipatory Defense is a community organizing model for people facing charges\, their families and communities to impact the outcome of cases and transform the court system’s power landscape. The ultimate goal is to help  get cases dismissed or have time saved. In the Houston area\, the Participatory Defense group works with the Harris Co. Public Defender’s Office. \n\n\n\nTo learn more\, see: \n\n\n\n\nThe Participatory Defense network web site at www.participatorydefense.org \n\n\n\n\n\nHarris Co. PDO’s Participatory Defense web page at hcpdo.org/resources/participatory-defense
