The Alliance for Appalachia works within a structure that empowers committee members to carry our work forward. Therefore, the Alliance for Appalachia is often working on several initiatives at the same time.

Our two most active committees are the Federal Committee, which runs the Our Water, Our Future campaign, and the Economic Transition Committee which has launched the Abandoned Mine Lands Project.

In addition, we work within national collaborations that give us opportunities learn, share and build a supportive community with energy and economic justice allies from across the continent.

And, as always, our regular steering meetings provide a space for our socially fragmented communities to come together and build regional strategy and connections that bolster our organizations’ local work. Beyond these meetings, we also host committee specific summits, trainings and events for visioning that help groups and individuals make connections to further their work.
