IRS990/Desc0Legal Rights & Women's Congress for Future Generations: The Women's Congress for Future Generations is an ongoing project of SEHN since 2012. Its mission is to raise up women's voices to catalyze actions that shift laws, policies, and norms that support a world in which future generations can thrive. Built greater support among women for environmental protection, especially water in the Midwest. Completed a pilot study group of the Companion for Political Change which included in-depth evaluation of how to move these key ideas forward. The study group met with elected officials and introduced resolutions to appoint a Guardian for Future Generations at the State level. Hosted a series of Salons where men & women explored how to implement a Guardian for Future Generations approach that supports and holds government accountable to protecting our common wealth and common health. Developed a plan for launching a Network of Guardians in early 2017 in Minnesota and expanding to other regions of the country. Began planning the third Women's Congress to be held November 3-5, 2017.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Ecological Medicine Program: SEHN worked extensively with many community groups and non-governmental organizations in the US, addressing many aspects of human health and the environment.

Participated in a large, collaborative effort to reform the regulation of hazardous industrial chemicals in the US. Invited into communities across Alaska to highlight opportunities for breast cancer prevention.
