The Rochester Area Interfaith Climate Action (RAICA) Annual Summit is returning to connect with others in the Rochester Area Community, share best practices, get support and connect with local resources and experts.

The summit will commence with words of inspiration given by Muhammed Rashid, Reverend Myra Brown and Rabbi Peter Stein. A keynote address will be given by Abigail McHugh-Grifa of the Climate Solutions Accelerator.

Workshops will cover solar panels, geothermal heating and cooling installations, congregational and household composting, energy audits, sustainable landscaping, youth action, and climate justice advocacy.
