No2Torture began at the 2005 Presbyterian Peacemaking Conference (Ghost Ranch, NM) as a grassroots groundswell to take a stand for the humane treatment of prisoners captured and held by the United States and our allies since the 9/11 attacks. We are motivated by love of God and our country, and by concern for captives and captors alike. Our initiative is grounded in Scripture, Reformed theology and the Holy Spirit speaking through the growing concerns of Presbyterians across the theological spectrum. We are dedicated to prayer, dialogue, study, advocacy and action.

In recent months, the effort has continued to gather momentum as individuals across the country became a part of the No2 Torture Yahoo Group. Anyone may join this group as a way to stay informed about the issues and connected with others across the country.
