Our Minnesota communities are already feeling the impacts of climate change, from widespread drought to bigger and more dangerous storms. Our neighbors are going to need support in building the relationships, infrastructure, and resources to prevent and adapt to the realities of climate disruption.

Minnesota’s faith, spiritual, and religious communities and community organizations are uniquely poised to meet this particular moment. By building deeper relationships with their immediate neighbors, upgrading and decarbonizing their facilities, and bringing together community resources, these groups can become centralized hubs of support for their neighbors. Unfortunately, many of these groups aren’t sure where to start or are struggling to do it alone.
