Hi John,

We are looking for members of the Eugene community who want to learn more about organizing for justice, and promoting the transition to clean energy.
Many Eugenians are increasingly and disproportionately affected by the rising cost of utility bills, indoor and outdoor air pollution from fossil fuels and wildfires, and the broader harms of climate change. Real change requires real leadership, and this is your opportunity to learn the skills needed to be a part of a movement for a just transition in Eugene.
Breach Collective has come together with Beyond Toxics and Oregon Just Transition Alliance to create the Clean Energy Leadership Institute (CELI), a program that will equip frontline community members (learn more about what "frontline" means here) with the leadership and advocacy skills to chart a just transition to clean energy in Eugene. The 2026 CELI cohort will learn alongside experienced organizers and community leaders, and gain knowledge and skills that can be used in community organizing and advocacy here in Eugene.
The institute will consist of six in-person workshops held on Wednesday evenings (6-7:30 PM) from February to May. Each participant will receive a stipend for participation. Other support, such as transportation and childcare stipends, may be available upon request.
