--- Sustainable Community Essentials Resource Sheets available online---

Toward cultivating greater capacity for sustainable practice around Southwestern Pennsylvania, the Sustainable Community Development Network of Sustainable Pittsburgh partnered with leading organizations to produce a new series of Sustainable Community Essentials Resource Sheets and a Rapid Assessment for communities. These resource sheets identify 14 essentials of a sustainable community - from Air Quality to Food Security to Governance - and provide an explanation of each topic and case studies - a perfect tool for community leaders to use as they work to improve their neighborhoods. 

B-PEP's Regional Equity Monitoring Project will be utilizing these valuable resources in their upcoming citizen monitoring trainings in the Fall.  If you are interested in becoming a monitor, please call the REMP hotline at 412-728-4849 or email remp@b-pep.net
