We train our volunteers in non-violent, non-confrontational tactics for dealing with protesters, following principles from Gandhi and M.L. King, Jr. Our training also includes important tactical information about the event venues, information about some of the specific protesters we are likely to encounter, and how Witnesses are deployed. This training is required for all who wish to participate as Peacekeepers. Training sessions last about 2 hours. If you have not had this Basic training within the last 2 years, please attend a session this year, as the training has been significantly updated.

CAPTAINS TRAINING requires completion of Basic training and having the experience of working at least one Pride festival as a regular Peacekeeper.
