Convenings
The ECP works with the movement builders of our generation: young people bringing their idealism, intelligence, and innovation to the task of winning progress on their campuses and in their communities and citizen-leaders bringing wisdom, experience and power to their work for community, regional and societal change. These are the leaders that will serve as a bridge to a more equitable and regenerative future.
While we live in a time that is more virtually connected than any time before, we believe that shared experiences and face-to-face interaction remain a vital part of building movements. We bring emerging and experienced leaders to convenings on Longhaul Farm, creating opportunities to experience sustainable living, learn from each other and build personal relationships. We also build networks of Hudson Valley community organizations through issue specific convenings geared towards helping communities replicate our campaigns in their own communities.

ECP Podcast - Next Stop Now
Right now, ordinary people are pioneering more just, healthy, democratic and sustainable futures by changing the ways they live or how they work with others to change their communities.
Social movements need stories of positive change that help inspire people, give them some footsteps to follow, and help activate them to make changes in their own lives. Next Stop Now is a place to find these stories of change to help catalyze movement, where you'll hear from people who took a risk to change their lives to change the world.
