In 2003 Carol Hillson became personally involved as a volunteer and leader within the Campaign for a U.S. Department of Peace. Soon after, she helped found New Yorkers for a Department of Peace; a local chapter.
As a result, Carol has developed a passion and dedication for learning about, and helping others to recognize the importance and efficacy of the emerging field of peacebuilding, which is still little known and understood by the general public. As a result, the practical solutions that exist to help resolve conflict, reduce and prevent violence go under funded and remain underutilized within our culture.
Part of the mission of Carol Hillson Creative is to help change this through design. We have the long-term intention of helping make the field of peacebuilding as visible, knowable and respectable as the field of healthcare.
Since 2003, in alignment with this mission, Carol Hillson Creative has offered discounted and pro bono design services to various organizations dedicated to promoting these essential skills. Below are some of our favorite organizations whose work we have helped support both through design as well as personal involvement.
