Description:

MCAN is a coalition of locally organized groups fighting the climate crisis. We do this by promoting carbon-reducing practices in our homes and communities; supporting MCAN chapters and allied organizations to grow a focused statewide movement; and communicating policy to members and leveraging our collective voice at the state level.
Our theme for the 2008 Conference—The Power of One, the Power of All—reflects this mission.

We work to unite individual and local efforts into collective action. Our organization has hundreds of individual members, a large and growing network of chapters scattered throughout Massachusetts, and relationships with many partner organizations. We reach residents, small businesses, and policy makers around the state. And we are committed to using our collective action, expertise, and resources to activate a broad range of constituencies on the climate crisis.

The 2008 Conference brings together many of the constituencies that make up our diverse state, from the power of one individual to the power of our collective voices raised on Beacon Hill.
