Defining and Achieving Your Goals

Mentoring Workshop at Tree Pittsburgh

Good food with great conversations! On May 1st, a dozen new and old members joined our mentorship committee chair, Renée Krynock, for a thoughtfully curated workshop to set goals, share experiences, and make plans to implement new habits to improve work/life balance. Have ideas for new events? Reach out to Renée today!

Challenges in Environmental Cleanup

Brown Bag Lunch with the DEP on May 21

It was a full house for our latest professional development program. Thanks to the PA Department of Environmental Protection who spent their lunch hour facilitating a discussion on the evolving PFAS Chapter 250 regulations, contaminated cleanup standards, and the Act 2 program. As a bonus, this event was hosted at Hazelwood Green on RIDC's Mill 19 site and participants were able to tour the newest development. Share your ideas for more events with our Program Committee.
