Initiatives
What We're Working On
Organizing & Advocacy
NCEJN supports communities impacted by environmental injustices by organizing workshops and conferences, offering training in community organizing, addressing communication needs, and facilitating networking across the state and beyond. We also provide support for EJ Fellows and, when necessary, assist with litigation through an external legal team.
Email Dr. Rañia Masri for more information.
Infrastructure and Development
NCEJN strengthens organizational capacities by providing resources to community-based organizations, including financial opportunities through our Mini-Fund and workshops to enhance Network members’ ability to further develop their infrastructure and increase sustainability. As a Justice 40 Hub, NCEJN offers grant-writing workshops and technical assistance.

Research & Education
NCEJN works with communities to determine how data can advance community advocacy goals, facilitates relationships with researchers, and leads community science efforts to address these data needs. We also provide environmental justice education and training for both communities and academics.
