For more than 20 years Salama (Swahili for ‘peace’) has served Nashville families and youth by providing life-changing programs that both equip youth with skills needed for success in life, and nurture lives of integrity and hope through the foundation of faith.

Today, Salama carries out its mission through The Salama Institute, which is a program that develops value-guided leaders through a year-round, 5-day-a-week experience for youth, Pre-K through Grade 12. The program focuses on skill development in the areas of academics, the arts, and leadership, all from a faith-based perspective.
