Quiet Communities

OUR MISSION

Quiet Communities (QC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting our health, environment, and quality of life from the excessive use of industrial outdoor maintenance equipment. We work with communities, businesses, and schools to provide education, outreach, and advocacy focused on informing the public about 1) the risks of related noise and pollution, and 2) beneficial alternative solutions.

Our mission is to promote clean, sustainable, and quiet outdoor maintenance practices as the valued norm.
