A Note From the Executive Director
In 2023, PEER marks its 30th anniversary. Our story has been one of remarkable service, hard work, and a steadfast commitment to helping current and former public employees speak the truth, protect science, and safeguard the environment. To mark this milestone, we are embarking on a year-long celebration and retrospective of our work through videos, webinars, and by sharing past successes in our publications. In the coming years, growing environmental crisis and continuing attacks on government institutions will require us to recommit to our mission while strengthening our engagement with public employees, community groups, and environmental and public health organizations. Thank you for being part of this journey. – Tim

I wanted to better support my staff and ensure their rights were protected, so I started paying closer attention to whistleblower groups who I could direct my staff to if they needed support.

I personally knew some whistleblowers that didn’t have access to a group like PEER, and it had major impacts on their careers and financial security. Continued…“
