Clean energy
We work to end harmful fossil fuel practices, shift to clean, 21st-century energy sources, and stand up to monopoly utility practices that put profits over people.
Healthy environment
We leverage grassroots organizing, community engagement, policy advocacy and technical expertise to protect the land, air and water of Central and Southern Appalachia.
Strong communities
We envision an Appalachia with healthy ecosystems and resilient local economies that allow communities to thrive.
The FEMA Act of 2025 was introduced with bipartisan leadership in the House of Representatives and passed the legislative committee. Now, we need congressional leaders to bring this bill to the House floor for a vote.
