They have become leaders of Environment America, USPIRG, Fair Share, Greenpeace, Green Corps, MoveOn, the Sierra Club and many other organizations. We currently invest over 200 hours of training per year per staff person-we're looking to deepen the impact of those hours and reach out to even more people, beyond our staff and volunteer base.
