Celebrate our "Big News" with these Special April Events
|
First, the BIG NEWS! After 13 years, Tamra Peters, our celebrated founder, has decided to move out of the Executive Director role to focus more on what she loves most - leading our Climate Action teams and continuing to develop our programs.
Tamra founded Resilient Neighborhoods in 2010. Since that time, over 2,000 people have graduated from our workshop series, reducing their greenhouse gas emissions by over 13.6 million annual pounds. This is like taking 2,500 homes permanently off the grid! Tamra remains committed to Climate Action and will continue on with Resilient Neighborhoods as a member of the Board of Directors and our Program Director. |
Kathren Murrell Stevenson, who joined our team in July of 2023, has moved into the Executive Director role as part of a planned leadership transition.
Tamra and Kathren are excited to continue working together with the Resilient Neighborhoods team and Marin County residents to reach our 2030 Climate Challenge goal of reducing 20 million annual pounds of greenhouse gas emissions from our atmosphere and protecting our living planet for future generations. Read more about Our Story, Our Team and Our Impact. Join us to celebrate our new growth at our online and in-person Special April Events. |
