Women's Voices for the Earth will be holding a health and environmental summit this Saturday, October 19 in Missoula.

Director of Outreach and Engagement for Women's Voice of the Earth, Cassidy Randall said on Monday, October 14, that there are actually two events going on this Saturday.

"The first event is a women's health and environment summit at the Stensrud Building," Randall said. "This will be a day-long event, bringing together women from around Montana to show their skills and learn from each other, and come out the other side as full-fledged environmental health rock stars."

The second event will be an entertainment and storytelling time on Saturday night.
