Counter Recruitment

WRL’s counter-recruitment work provides young people with the resources and training necessary to agitate against military recruitment in their schools and communities.

Our long term goal is to bring youth organizers and young veterans together to help build a unified, national anti-war movement. To help accomplish this, we produce materials, conduct trainings, and work in a number of national coalitions.

Get connected to youth counter recruitment activists all over the country. Check out DMZ: A Guide to Taking Your School Back from the Military an organizing guide for high school students interested in keeping the military out of our schools. We offer counter recruitment workshops and trainings for students, activists, and educators on a regular basis. Email wrl@warresisters.org for more information.

For several years, WRL focused our counter-recruitment work through the Not Your Soldier Project. You can still check out the archived website from the Not Your Soldier Project.
