About This Event

Join Children’s Hospital Association (CHA), Boston Children’s Hospital, and Practice Greenhealth (PGH) for the first webinar in our series exploring how children’s hospitals can launch and grow environmental sustainability programs improving the health of patients and their communities.

In this webinar, learn how Boston Children’s sustainability team gained support from C-suite leaders to champion the work across the organization. Hear how they connected environmental health efforts to the hospital’s mission, engaged employees in planning and prioritizing initiatives, and did an internal “road show” resulting in improved workstreams.

PGH will share resources to help begin and advance sustainability programs and discuss strategies that have been successful at other hospitals.
