After a decade of work with Pennsylvania Interfaith Power & Light, I have stepped back, and am in a period of discernment about the next step of my career. I have continued to work periodically with congregations as a workshop leader or presenter (each done remotely) for adult religious education groups interested in climate justice, congregational.

I work with an excellent Board (and now an Executive Director! ) to engage members of faith communities across PA to engage in faithful, active, and hopeful response to climate change as an urgent moral issue. We do community-specific and multi-faith education, service and energy efficiency, and non-partisan advocacy work, and would love to tell you more.
