Mothers Out Front-Hampton Roads very proud of the work we are doing in our region. Last summer, a group of us, our neighbors and friends were able to convince the mayor of Norfolk to get serious about reducing carbon emissions in our region. Mayor Alexander signed on to the Global Covenant of Mayors, implemented his Climate Change Commission and appointed two of our moms to serve on the committee. We believe that this campaign was successful because we joined together with others in Norfolk who were also concerned about the threat of flooding, supercharged coastal storms and the increase in tornadoes to our children’s future.

We hope that all Hampton Roads mayors will follow Norfolk’s lead so we are asking for your help to take action with other mothers and grandmothers in Virginia Beach.

Join us on Saturday, June 30th from 10am - 12pm for a discussion forum to talk about how we can best promote sustainable energy independence with common-sense policies and job-creating innovations. Your insights as a local mother are invaluable and will certainly help us plan for our next action in Virginia Beach.

Refreshments will be served including vegan and Gluten-free choices.
