Welcome to WNCPSR

Click here for information about the upcoming presentation by Karl Grossman on March 25th, "Weapons in Space ?," 7:00pm in the Reuter Center at UNCA, light refreshments at 6:30.  We hope that you will mark your calendar and join us for this event. The program is open to the public.

 PREVENTING WHAT WE CANNOT CURE: Physicians for Social Responsibility is the medical and public health voice working to prevent the use or spread of nuclear weapons and to slow, stop and reverse global warming and the toxic degradation of the environment.

   We greatly appreciate you continuing support of The Western North Carolina Chapter of Physicians for Social Responsibility  and our work together for a healthier and more secure world! With your help, we have been an effective voice for positive change in 2009 - Thank You!      

    We have promoted our agenda through meetings in the offices of members of Congress, editorial commentary published in several newspapers, sponsoring  World Affairs Council events: "Beyond War" and "Nuclear Weapons and the Human Future" at UNCA, working in opposition to Duke Energy's Cliffside coal plant, convening a Hiroshima Day candlelight vigil for peace in downtown Asheville on August 6th. We also joined with Nuclear Information and Resource Services in a three day exhibit of The Southern Energy and Environmental EXPO, promoting a sustainable environment and the disarmament of nuclear weapons.

   We  ask that you support our work in 2010.
