Join us for our upcoming in-person All Members Meeting on Thursday, May 28th! This convening provides a critical space for network members to hear about the strategic work happening in our region and shape the next chapter of our collective work by forming member-led Action Pods. This is your opportunity to lead, connect, and drive tangible progress on regional goals that demand our urgent attention.

We are looking for network leaders to help guide and drive progress on five critical regional priorities:

- Data Centers: Applying a cancer lens to regional development.
- IRIS Program Defense: Protecting chemical risk assessment standards.
- Air Toxics Assessment: Using AirToxScreen data for advocacy in Allegheny County.
- Relational Sustainability: Building long-term advocacy resilience.
- Project REACH: Turning complex science into community action.

Help us spark immediate regional impact. We hope you can join us!

As we take time to reflect on the three-day 2026 Environmental Summit, we are overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible success of the event.

We want to extend a special thanks to our Pitt Center for Public Health Practice partners: Tina Ndoh, PhD, Alyssa Sharma, and Rhonda Toth. This summit would simply not have been possible without your tireless dedication, strategic vision, and countless hours of planning.

To our dedicated participants: Thank you for bringing your expertise, challenging questions, and unwavering commitment to the fight for environmental justice. Your energy fueled every panel and conversation.

To our invaluable community partners: Your collaboration was the bedrock of this summit. Thank you for sharing your platforms and your profound local knowledge, ensuring that our discussions were grounded in regional solutions.

To the fantastic venues that hosted us: Your beautiful spaces provided the perfect environment for deep connection and learning. Thank you for your flexibility and hospitality throughout the weekend.

To our wonderful vendors: Thank you for providing delicious, sustainable options and services that kept our attendees nourished and energized. Your commitment to ethical practices enhanced the entire summit experience.

And finally, to our sponsors: We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the remarkable and generous assistance, especially from the The Heinz Endowments. Our sponsors’ contributions made this summit possible, and we cannot thank them enough for investing in our collective vision.

We are proud to be immersed in spaces where the collective passion for remedying environmental harms and advancing liberation is felt so powerfully. This summit proved that when we gather with intention, transformation is possible.

Thank you, again, to everyone who made the 2026 Environmental Summit a vibrant and meaningful success. The work continues!
