Founded in 2011, we are a national 501(c)3 nonprofit that provides education and community to professionals across the US building industry. We’re focused on rapidly implementing Passive House building standards to robustly address our climate and social justice crises and create enhanced value for occupants and owners alike.

We work with global knowledge networks in affiliation with the Passive House Institute. We’re all about showing that if we work together, we can build a better world.

Most buildings, even “green” buildings, are uncomfortable, use too much energy, provide poor indoor air quality, and are expensive to operate. The building industry is generally confused about what drives performance. We demystify the impact of design and construction choices, raise expectations, and transform how you think and work.

We offer introductory, core certification and advanced courses to help you take next steps in making your next building a climate solution. Become a member and participate with our expert network through regional chapters and national events.
