About MassIPL

Massachusetts Interfaith Power & Light (MassIPL) is a statewide nonprofit that mobilizes communities of faith to respond to the climate crisis. We work with more than 200 congregations across Massachusetts to reduce carbon emissions, support clean energy transitions, advance environmental justice, and equip leaders from rising generations.
