2026 Annual Meeting - Keystone, SD
HEFN's 2026 Annual Meeting took place in April 2026, in Keystone, SD. ~100 attendees gathered at the base of the Black Hills – a region shaped by deep histories of resistance, cultural resilience, and ongoing organizing for environmental health and justice, and one at the heart of intergenerational movement-building toward a just, healthy future for all. South Dakota offered a powerful context for these conversations. From uranium mining in the Black Hills to the fight against pipelines and eminent domain, the region highlights how land, democracy, community, and environmental health are deeply intertwined. Local communities are defending sovereignty, protecting sacred lands, and leading on renewable energy solutions.
