Thank you for attending the A Civil Action event on Thursday, March 10th. The successful event drew over 200 people, and brought attention to important water quality issues and a powerful local story. We started the evening by hearing from MyRWA’s Executive Director, EK Khalsa, who provided an introduction to the event and guest speaker lawyer Jan Schlichtmann.  Jan provided an engaging and informative overview of his experience working on A Civil Action – an experience that changed his life and the lives of many others.  We were thrilled to be joined by several of the Woburn families represented in the case.  Jan called on the audience to get involved with MyRWA to make safer, healthier communities.

Special thanks to the Regent Theatre, Sustainable Arlington, Woburn Residents’ Environmental Network, Aberjona Study Coalition, Inc.,  Friends of the Mystic River, and  of course, Jan Schlichtmann!
