Join us in person for The Environmental Justice Exchange, a conversation about air pollution in Pilsen. 

A controversial scrap-metal operation in Pilsen has neighbors concerned about their health. 

Join community experts for a discussion about living next to Sims Metal Management in an area of the city that suffers from poor air quality. 

Our event moderator, Brett Chase, Sun-Times environmental reporter, will be joined by: 

• Mary Gonzales, chair of the Social Justice Committee at St. Paul Catholic Church in Pilsen
• Tanya Lozano, director of Healthy Hood Chicago and a local community activist
• Theresa McNamara, chairwoman of the Southwest Environmental Alliance
• Olga Bautista, executive director of the Southeast Environmental Task Force

Attend the live conversation on May 10 from 6-7 p.m. CT at St. Paul’s Catholic Church (2127 W. 22nd Pl.). 

This event is made possible by the generous support of The Chicago Community Trust.
