Dear MonValley Clean Air Coalition,
For far too long, industry has carelessly polluted the air in southwest Pennsylvania, while the region’s air quality has continually failed to meet federal health standards. We must work together to demand that industry and government protect our health, environment, and quality of life.
Clean Air Council is organizing a campaign to mobilize and train concerned residents across southwest PA to become local experts on issues related to air pollution in their communities. It is a way for people of all knowledge levels to work together to advocate for cleaner air.
Clean Air Council is hosting ongoing training sessions for volunteers interested in becoming a Southwest PA Neighbors for Clean Air group leader. New group leaders will be trained in how to facilitate group meetings and advocacy efforts. The Council will provide leaders with educational materials, action steps, facilitator notes, and ongoing support. Leaders are responsible for recruiting about 10 members and scheduling group meetings.
Please join us at one of the following trainings:
- Thursday, August 30th from 6:00 - 7:30pm at the Porch, 221 Schenley Dr, Pittsburgh, PA 15213
- Wednesday September 5th from 6:00 - 7:30pm at Panera Bread, 4172 William Penn Hwy, Monroeville, PA 15146
- Wednesday, September 12th from 4:00 - 5:30pm at Crazy Mocha, 2 E North Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15212
- Friday, September 21st from 1:00 - 2:30pm at Delanie's Coffee, 1737 E Carson St, Pittsburgh, PA 15203
- Thursday, September 26th from 6:00 - 7:30pm at Mt. Lebanon Public Library, 16 Castle Shannon Blvd, Mt Lebanon, PA 15228
To sign up for a scheduled training, arrange a different training time, or learn more about the campaign, please contact Kelly Yagatich at kyagatich@cleanair.org or 412-723-7055.
Sincerely,
Dave Smith & Kelly Yagatich
