The volunteers accompany human rights defenders, their organizations and others threatened by political violence. It currently has teams in Colombia, Mexico, Indonesia and Guatemala.

The National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee is a coalition of groups from across the U.S., formed in 1982 to provide information and support to people involved in or considering some form of war tax resistance.
