Our Initiatives
DSCEJ CIRC
The DSCEJ has launched a Thriving Communities Technical Assistance Center (TCTAC) called CIRC (Community Investment Recovery Center) to provide direct services to community-based organizations (CBOs) and Tribal communities through capacity building, technical assistance, and training.
Our service area includes EPA Regions 4 and 6, spanning 13 states and 73 Tribes.
Justice40
Justice40 is a whole-of-government effort to ensure that Federal agencies work with states and local communities to make good on President Biden’s promise to deliver at least 40 percent of the overall benefits from Federal investments in climate and clean energy to disadvantaged communities.
We designed this project using the collaborative insight of hard-learned lessons from our decades-long history of research, education and community engagement work to document, address and bring change through our struggle for Environmental Justice.
