Events/Conferences

Our conferences in Massachusetts, Maine, and Vermont annually attract more than 650 activists for a day of workshops and speakers. Our annual spring Leadership Retreat brings together twenty of the top activists in the region to discuss advanced neighborhood organizing strategies and principles. Our issue summits bring together three to five community groups that are working on the same issue throughout the region.

Toxics Action Center's conferences, trainings, and summits equip residents with organizing skills; educate them on environmental issues; provide them with a forum in which to share their successes and strategies; inspire them for another year of preventing and cleaning up pollution in their neighborhoods; and bring them together with experts.
