We, the Healthy Textiles Coalition, are a diverse group of nonprofits, businesses, researchers, industry experts, manufacturers, farms, and ranches committed to the shared goal of developing decentralized natural fiber processing systems.

We recognize the urgent conditions brought on by fast fashion including the impacts of microplastics and chemicals from synthetic fibers on our physical bodies, marine and terrestrial ecosystems, and the human and ecological cost of artificially cheap and overproduced clothing and other textiles.
