We are living in unprecedented times.
The Alliance for a Viable Future brings together leaders,
activists, and visionaries to meet this moment with courage,
compassion, and creativity.
We cultivate alliances and nurture leadership for
bioregional climate solutions and intercultural
peacemaking in the Berkshires and across the Northeast.
Our work is about building trust, shaping a shared vision,
and practicing strategies to navigate the
challenges of our time—grounded in place,
guided by spirit, and made real through collective action.
Step into the circle–through our signature
Leadership Cohort, compelling programs,
and community events–and together
we can create a viable future.
OUR FLAGSHIP PROGRAM
Deep Roots 2026
REGENERATIVE LEADERSHIP FOR CHANGEMAKERS IN THE NORTHEAST BIOREGION
Our signature yearlong program gathers a diverse circle of changemakers from across the Northeast. Together, we cultivate the skills, relationships, and vision needed to lead in times of disruption and possibility.
Rooted in deep relationship, this circle is more than a program—it is a growing movement of aligned partners who recognize that the challenges we face are complex, interconnected, and impossible to solve in isolation. From climate instability to cultural fragmentation, the path forward requires trust, collaboration, and a shared commitment to the wellbeing of people and planet.
“The circle gives permission...We’re giving each other permission to care deeply...when we do that,
then intelligence, courage, and skillfulness emerge naturally.”
– Lev Natan, Founder & Executive Director of AVF
Lead Facilitator & Program Designer
we are making the impossible, possible
