From Lizzi Weyant and Erin Wortman

To our partners in the MAPC region,

As we look at the work accomplished in 2025 and the aspirations we have for the year ahead in 2026, it is a time of great pride to be in leadership at MAPC. Our staff are visionary, resilient and committed to making a Greater Boston region, and we are poised to serve our communities through climate-focused, equity-grounded, collaborative projects and research. 

We are in a strong place for our cities and towns, even in the face of challenges at the federal level. The work that goes on in cities and towns is where we find inspiration and hope, and we know that by serving you and discovering new innovations together, we can move our communities forward in strength, one neighborhood and one impactful project at a time. We may not be able to change everything happening at the national level, but we can make a huge difference right where we live and work every day, and that is the scale at which MAPC’s dedicated team members excel and find meaning.

As we look to the coming year and the potential for new partnerships and growth, we remain so thankful to have you working alongside us on shared goals for a more livable and sustainable region. We look forward to being able to continue doing this work together in 2026!

Lizzi Weyant & Erin Wortman
