From the Board President

"A healthy environment, prosperity, sustainability, national security and many other issues of great importance are interwoven in complex ways that too often get short shrift in our public dialogues. Northern Center staff, board, and members have been dedicated to pursuing these critical avenues of thought and action for the past forty years. With your continued support, we’re ready for the next forty."
