Citizen Outreach and Field Manager

Work to protect our drinking water from toxic chemicals in our citizen outreach and field manager positions. 

PFAS are toxic chemicals linked to cancer & developmental problems. When they get into our drinking water, they threaten our health and cost millions to clean up. In Massachusetts, already 172 public water systems have exceeded the legal limit for PFAS. 

That’s why in our Boston office, we’re working to pass a bill to get PFAS out of common consumer products and stop companies from releasing them into the ground water.
