Sustainable Pennsylvania

What is a Sustainable Pennsylvania Community?

A Sustainable Pennsylvania community is one that has been recognized as a leader in Pennsylvania. These municipalities earned their certification as Sustainable Pennsylvania communities by demonstrating a commitment to take economic, environmental, and social actions that benefit their residents, businesses, organizations, and the region.

Pennsylvania’s local government officials have a profound role in advancing quality of life and access to opportunities in their communities. Using sustainability as a strategic framework helps municipalities achieve these goals. 

Adopting sustainability as a municipal strategy will benefit government operations, foster community economic opportunity, and lead to a resilient, attractive community.

The Sustainable Pennsylvania Community certification is collaboratively managed by the Pennsylvania Municipal League and Sustainable Pittsburgh.
