Which non-governmental, not-for-profit organization in Atlanta, United States is known as 'The King Center'?

The Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change, commonly known as The King Center, is a non-governmental, not-for-profit organization in Atlanta, United States. The center was founded in 1968 by Coretta Scott King, wife of Martin Luther King Jr. In 1981, the center's headquarters were moved into the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site facility on Auburn Avenue which includes King's birth home and the Ebenezer Baptist Church, where he preached from 1960 until his death.

In 1977, a memorial tomb was dedicated, and the remains of Martin Luther King Jr. were moved from South View Cemetery to the plaza that is nestled between the center and the church. Martin Luther King Jr.'s gravesite and a reflecting pool are also located next to Freedom Hall. Mrs. King was interred with her husband on February 7, 2006.

The organization carries out initiatives on both the domestic and international levels and is dedicated to research, education, and training in the principles, philosophy, and methods of Kingian nonviolence. Their mission is to empower people to create a just, humane, equitable, and peaceful world by applying Dr. King's nonviolent philosophy and methodology.
