You care about our community and helping people live sustainably. You are concerned about climate change, the availability of clean water, air quality, and the integrity of our ecosystems.

Our culture is “trusting, productive, and happy at work”, as one staffer put it. There is great joy in working on issues we feel passionately about! One of our departing board members says “It has been wonderful working with such a competent and diverse board with an open communication and focused output-based decision-making.”
