Community Voices in Energy launched our new national training cohort on March 12. The training is designed to prepare participants to address energy justice issues and make change through energy regulatory cases that affect their communities.
Over the course of about eight bi-weekly virtual trainings, we will address and demystify traditional legal intervention in public utility commission proceedings. The program will also broadly present how individuals can bring about a more just and affordable energy system through policy advocacy, organizing, and education.
Participants will also gain insights from last year’s amazing successes in Illinois.
At the end of the program the participants will complete projects, many of which involve energy justice workshops and training that will scale the impact of the work. Participants will receive Energy Justice Intervenor certification showing that thet have learned about navigating and influencing the energy regulatory system.
