Join us for a unique and powerful conversation with Lauren Regan — founder, director, and senior staff attorney of the US Civil Liberties Defense Center.

In this special event, Lauren will take to the stage with Bob Brown and Jenny Weber. Lauren will share her insights from nearly three decades of legal work defending environmental, climate, and social justice movements. Together, they’ll explore what these frontline experiences mean for activists and what lessons we can draw in the fight for wild places and wildlife.
