Wolverine Community
Advisory Group

The State of Michigan has declared September 21-25 as the first annual PFAS Awareness Week.  During this week there will be events across Michigan to educate Michiganders about the danger of these chemicals and what state and community groups are doing to address this very troubling issue.

On September 24, the Wolverine Community Advisory Group (CAG) is hosting a two‑hour community forum at Rockford High School’s auditorium, held as part of Michigan’s first PFAS Awareness Week, bringing residents, scientists, health experts, and local leaders together for a comprehensive update on PFAS contamination connected to the Wolverine Worldwide shoe company sites. The evening will blend clear, accessible presentations with personal stories and open conversation. Attendees will hear the latest science, learn about ongoing cleanup efforts, receive current health guidance, and explore opportunities for meaningful community involvement. For additional details, please visit the event information page.  Rockford High School is at 4100 Kroes St NE, Rockford, MI 49341.  Doors open at 6:00pm and the event begins at 6:30pm.  You can read a detailed description of the event beforehand.
