The QEN is the only all volunteer city-wide organization solely dedicated to Quincy’s environment. We believe that a healthy environment enhances the quality of everyone’s life. Our mission is to preserve and improve our local environment.

The goals of the QEN are to:

· Provide a voice for the environment where there isn’t one.
· Educate the public on environmental issues.
· Encourage all to participate in local environmental efforts.
· Provide a forum for citizens to communicate with each other and their city officials about environmental issues.
· Support and promote the work of local environmental efforts and organizations.


The QEN was founded on Earth Day, April 22, 2001.
