Convenings

The Network convenes to turn shared knowledge into regional impact. Whether through regular hub meetings or our triannual full membership gatherings, we explore emerging science and identify synergies across our many projects. Together, these convenings serve as a platform for launching emergent Action Pods: agile, purpose-driven teams that tackle specific environmental challenges and drive systemic change.

Our engagement also extends to specialized events, including an annual environmental summit, held in partnership with other organizations which broaden our reach and deepen our local roots.

Become Involved In Our Hubs

Government Hub

The Government Hub provides strategic policy guidance, tracks legislation, and advises on points of leverage. This Hub seeks to increase our region’s capacity to influence policy by uplifting existing initiatives of organizations participating in the Network. There is also a focus on all facets of government and ways in which we can influence them.

Science Hub

The Science Hub operates as the network’s knowledge base. Its role is to gather, analyze, and disseminate critical scientific information. This Hub also provides high-level research that has the potential to fill crucial gaps in knowledge needed to reduce environmental carcinogens, promote safer alternatives, and catalyze systemic change towards healthy environments.

Healing & Justice Hub

The Healing & Justice Hub serves as our principled foundation, ensuring our work is grounded in equity, community voice, and a trauma-informed approach. By prioritizing equitable practices, they guide the Network in sensemaking to ensure our pathways to prevention are inclusive, just, and responsive to the needs of those most impacted by environmental toxins.
