TESTIMONIALS > > >

“I have been a member of the Green Leadership Trust from my early days as a Sierra Club board member. I cannot stress enough the importance of counting on a community to support my involvement in places that people of color have only recently accessed. Without a doubt, my ability to lead the Club as its President is augmented by the network, training, and inter-organizational perspective on building power that GLT embodies.”

Ramon Cruz / Sierra Club Board President
