Appalachian Voices
Founded in 1997, Appalachian Voices brings people together to protect the land, air, and water of Central and Southern Appalachia and advance a just transition to a generative and equitable clean energy economy. Appalachian Voices is fueled by an abiding love of our common wealth: our mountains, rivers, forests, farms, and communities. We respect the depth and complexity of our region's history, and we honor cultural traditions that uphold the integrity of the land and the people. We are bound together by a moral commitment to our neighbors and the pursuit of a durable and ecologically sound shared prosperity. By bringing the best of ourselves to our work every day, we honor the people and places we represent in our pursuit of an Appalachia with healthy, intact ecosystems and generative local economies that allow communities to thrive.
