Climate Trainings

June 2025 | Spirit of Place: A Hudson Valley Climate Training

We’re thrilled to bring our faith, spirituality and climate training to the Hudson Valley this June! This training, designed for leaders and active members of all faiths and traditions, will support participants in responding to the climate crisis, with a focus on ecology and biocultural heritage of the Hudson Valley. The program will address climate science and policy, bioregionalism, local watershed and foodshed issues, and environmental justice initiatives. We will share skills to offer spiritual support and pastoral care, co-create ritual and ceremony, communicate science through an ethical lens, and learn from the land and water.
