Critical Time for Environmental  and Public Health

Rock to Rock Partner organizations are confronting new challenges everyday, and working with community members to implement creative impactful solutions.

 

Who could have imagined the environmental challenges and choices we face today? 
A climate emergency. Huge public health challenges?

What will New Haven and our planet look like in another 50 years?
We get to decide, with our actions and voices, what come next. Will you step up to raise support for the organizations working for a greener, healthier, more welcoming and just community, now and into the future? It's going to take all of us.
