Forming Partnerships
Ensuring a healthy and livable future takes us all.
Everyone should have clean water and air, but the unjust reality is that not everyone in Minnesota does. Securing that right requires long-term systemic change, and all of us. It also requires partnering with impacted communities that know best what they need.
From working with the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe to protect wetlands and Manoomin (wild rice), to fighting alongside East Phillips residents to shut down a toxic foundry, to advocating with well owners to protect drinking water in Southeastern Minnesota, MCEA is committed to using our resources and expertise in partnerships and coalitions working toward a safe and healthy environment for all.
Building the future we deserve, together
The environmental movement needs lawyers like MCEA Healthy Communities Director and attorney Evan Mulholland because he fosters authentic relationships with frontline communities. These relationships build trust and inform stakeholders in ways that help them understand the issues they are facing.
