Want to be an active part of your community and the issues that impact all of us? Join Defiende Nuestra Tierra, Wilderness Workshop, and Western Colorado Alliance for a workshop focused on how to write a public comment. While this workshop will focus on a land management plan for our local Bureau of Land Management (BLM) public lands, this is an important skill that will empower you to be an active part of the public process and enable you to speak up for issues that you care about, including our incredible BLM lands and the animals and communities who rely on them. Dinner, childcare, and Spanish interpretation will be provided.
Hanna worked as a geologist in the environmental industry for a decade before shifting her professional focus to community organizing. A huge fan of hiking and camping, she is always happiest outdoors. Her love of nature led to her studies and career in Earth science, but more recently she decided that she could better serve broad environmental interests, such as extractive industry practices, renewable energy, water conservation, and sustainable agriculture, by getting involved with her local community. She is excited for the opportunity to connect with people in Garfield County and help bring the various voices of the community together to create change that benefits all residents and preserves the beautiful Western Slope. In her free time she loves exploring new trails, gardening, and chasing around her two young children.
