Together, we are powerful.

This Pride Month, MCAN celebrates LGBTQ+ communities and recognizes that strong, resilient movements are built through solidarity, inclusion, and collective action.

Have you heard of “Decarbonizers”? 🌱 It’s a peer-to-peer program that helps neighbors empower neighbors to make real climate progress, and it works for any community, landlords included.

Although Massachusetts has made strides with solar, EVs, and heat pumps, we have a long way to go. And right now, peer influence is one of the most powerful motivators of change.

On June 1st at noon, MCAN President Fred Davis is hosting a virtual training on how to organize a Decarbonizers program in your community. Training + Q&A for the first hour, then open discussion until 1:30.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, MCAN is recognizing the importance of care, connection, and community. Just like climate action, caring for our mental health starts with small steps that help us grow stronger together.

Opening up about mental health can plant the seeds for healing, resilience, and hope. You are not alone, and every conversation matters.
