"I think the State of Appalachia conference is a critical opportunity for faith and social justice leaders to network on pivotal issues in our region. When I attended last year, I felt more hope for our region's future than I have for a long time!"
Rev. Robin Blakeman, Presbyterian Church USA West Virginia Interfaith Power & Light "The State of Appalachia conference gathers together folks who speak truth to power regarding the issues facing Appalachia today. They then seek solutions widely from the faith perspective so that this region is a better place to live, work and pray." Bill Price, Field Manager, Based in Charleston, WV Sierra Club |
