Welcome to PSR Arizona

Currently we focus our efforts on nuclear weapons treaties, climate change action, and promotion of renewable energies, especially solar energy.  We collaborate with a number of other peace and environmental organizations in our communities.  We actively collaborate with others to support universal access to health care for all Americans.

PSR Arizona’s Climate Smart Southwest Project was created to build new and fortify existing cross-cultural, community, and governmental partnerships to educate and engage community action to address the anticipated public health impacts of climate change in the Southwest.
