Climate Forward Focus Group

Climate Forward Focus Group
The City of Somerville Office of Sustainability and Environment is seeking volunteers to participate in focus groups on the topic of updating the City's climate action plan, Climate Forward. Our goal is to gain valuable perspectives and expertise by engaging with members of the community on climate change. The results will be used to advise the Climate Forward update.

Focus groups will likely be scheduled between October and December 2023.

Please note: Through this form, we are collecting statistical information to help ensure diversity, equity, and inclusion in this process. Participants may review the plan update project page before the focus group, here: somervillema.gov/climateforward2023.

Individuals with disabilities who need auxiliary aids and services for effective communication, written materials in alternative formats, or reasonable modifications in policies and procedures, in order to access the programs and activities of the City or to attend meetings, should contact the City’s ADA Coordinator, Adrienne Pomeroy, at 617-625-6600 x2059 or apomeroy@somervillema.gov.
