CISPES (Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador) is a national, grassroots, solidarity organization. It has been working since 1980 in solidarity with the FMLN (Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front) and the Salvadoran social justice movement to promote an alternative to the oppressive US-backed policies of the Salvadoran right. Today, eighteen years after the signing of the Salvadoran Peace Accords, the struggle for a more just society continues on many socio-economic fronts.

The U.S.-El Salvador Sister Cities Network is a grass-roots organization of U.S. citizens and residents who have ongoing partnerships with small rural communities in El Salvador. Those partnerships began in 1986 as a citizen-based response to the U.S. intervention in El Salvador’s civil war. Today, twenty sister cities from across the United States are paired with Salvadoran communities in six of El Salvador’s fourteen provinces through our sister organization, the Association for the Development of El Salvador, CRIPDES.
