Our 14th Annual DRYerson Festival has wrapped up. You can check out some of the photo entries here. It was fun, and a way for all of us to celebrate and engage while being socially distant. We wrapped up the event and revealed the prize winners at our virtual monthly CCJ Community Meeting earlier this week.

Do you have something on your mind that you would like to write a blog about? We’d love to share what y’all have to say! We are still taking submissions for our What’s on your mind? blogClick here for more details and to submit your blog.

During the time of COVID-19, we are holding our monthly meetings virtually. These meetings are for CCJ members and supporters (and prospective ones!) and are generally held on the last Tuesday of the month. Call or write for details, or check our events pages on our website or Facebook.

    Lisa (Coffield) DePaoli joined the CCJ staff in 2018 and is now our Communications Director. She grew up in rural Washington County, has family in both Washington and Greene Counties, and has always loved animals and spending time outdoors. A first-generation and nontraditional college student, her deep interest in human beings and ecology led her to earn a Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of Pittsburgh in 2012. She has worked on research projects and taught at the university level in the U.S. and in field schools in Latin America. The knowledge and experience she gained increased her concern for environmental and social justice issues, which she believes are best addressed at the local level, or from the "bottom up," including the voices of those who are most impacted. Lisa works to understand issues from the local to the global, seeks to make a positive difference, and loves to talk to people about what interests or concerns them. In her free time, she enjoys reading, spending time with her family, furkids, and friends, and walking in the woods with her dogs. Contact Lisa at lisa@centerforcoalfieldjustice.org.
