The Cincinnati Earth Institute (CEI) started as a program of EarthConnection that began in early 1997 with the first offering of the Voluntary Simplicity course in Cincinnati. In August, 2000, CEI became one of twelve regional institutes. These regional institutes are all extensions of the Northwest Earth Institute founded by long time Earth activists Dick & Jeanne Roy, of Portland, Oregon, in 1993. The Roys departed from their professional careers to develop a series of stimulating discussion courses meant to clarify personal values and attitudes on critical environmental issues. Since the closing of Earth Connection in June 2001, CEI mentors have transitioned the institute into a fully volunteer based organization. The primary method for
living our mission is through this series of fun, interactive and
supportive discussion courses: |
