The series of Sustainability seminars has been instrumental in assisting the WA State Department of Corrections in understanding how to approach sustainability. I have been able to take many of the exercises and examples and use them directly in training Corrections staff.

The interaction with the diverse group was great! It is important we all recognize other people’s issues so we don’t continue to live in our vacuum.

—Catherine Walker,

Opportunities to interact and share experiences, what works and doesn’t with some similar people. Opening with a view of oil gave a deep impact on the small actions that are still so needed and do make a difference. Great opportunities to share and learn from each other.
