NON-PROFIT

WE ACT for Environmental Justice is a not-for-profit with a mission to build healthy communities by ensuring that people of color and or/low income residents participate meaningfully in the creation of sound and fair environmental health and protection policies and practices.

This campaign was designed to ensure that frontline communities could fully access and benefit from the federal Justice40 Initiative, which directs 40 percent of the benefits of climate and clean energy investments to historically disadvantaged communities.

We worked closely with WE ACT to review their media archive (days of footage!) of the Justice 40ward tours across the nation to create this film highlighting the valuable work that was done and still needs to be done in the Environmental Justice Movement and in our country's underserved communities of color.
