Join the Community Learning Series
Our community and the environmental movement have been fractured by racism and systems of oppression. Our living environments are unhealthy, wealth and power are unevenly distributed, and environmental and climate injustices are harming us and our neighbors.
Join our Community Learning Series so we can overcome and repair this harm, and build a fair future for everyone!
Our Spring Session begins on April 8th!

Frequently Asked
How It Works
Throughout the year, we invite community members to join a series of two-month long learning sessions. During each session we read a selected book together to explore systems of oppression and take collective action.
Community Learning
Starting in April, we’ll host a series of two-month long learning sessions based on a specific theme. We’ll read a selected book together that fits each theme and meet regularly to discuss.
Through facilitated group discussions, we’ll create a shared understanding of the concepts in the book, connect the material to current issues, apply what we’ve learned to create impact, and deepen our engagement with local action and initiatives.
Each session includes one orientation and three virtual discussions, meeting every two weeks.
Book Circles
During select sessions, we invite folks who are interested in diving deeper into the book to read with a small Book Circle. Book Circles meet virtually on a regular basis, in addition to the bi-weekly discussions in the session.
Book Circles are great for those wanting to get to know people more personally, discuss the book in more detail, and for those who like more accountability.
Book Circles have been a very impactful and meaningful way for folks to get the most out of the reading and connect with the community!
Collective Action Alerts
Every two weeks, we send a Collective Action Alert email with three suggested actions we can take in our community.
Actions support and amplify community initiatives and organizations that are working towards environmental justice. They range from attending events, signing petitions, spreading awareness, donating, etc.
We encourage you to commit to taking at least one action every two weeks, as it is not enough to learn about racism, systems of oppression, and environmental injustices. We must take action against them.
Collective Action Alerts are a great way to get involved and support our neighbors and community!
