                                                        Introduction

Ann Arbor War Tax Dissidents works for passage of the U.S. Peace Tax Fund bill, (a law permitting people morally opposed to war to have the military portion of their taxes allocated to peacemaking), and provides counseling and information resources for persons conscientiously opposed to payment of war taxes.

AAWTD generally meets the third Saturday of each month in the Pine Room of the Wesley Foundation, 602 East Huron, Ann Arbor. AAWTD is affiliated with the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee (NWTRCC), And with the National Campaign for a Peace Tax Fund. (NCPTF). AAWTD is of an informal nature with a diverse membership and a volunteer coördinator.

AAWTD provides the community with a Speaker's Bureau, workshops, forums, information hotlines, (contact appropriate number listed below), and Taxes for Peace, (a slide show).
