We believe that public policy is an important leverage point for creating a healthier, sustainable, and just society.
Our team not only applies an environmental justice lens on federal legislation and policy developments to educate the public but supports inclusive practices to ensure marginalized communities can play an active role in crafting policies that impact their communities.
We regularly consult and collaborate with environmental justice leaders, impacted communities, and partners (including local, state, and federal government agencies) on legislative advocacy to advance environmental justice centered policies.
