Join the Environmental Justice Workgroup

This advisory group advances regional climate priorities and community-driven solutions for local governments. The workgroup is led by the County's Office of Sustainability and Environmental Justice (OSEJ). In addition to being a part of an inspired group of changemakers, members receive $150 per meeting for their time and for sharing their perspectives.

Members are selected through an application process. We value lived experience, community knowledge, volunteer work, cultural knowledge, and grassroots leadership alongside professional experience. Applicants do not need formal education, technical expertise, or government experience to be considered. We encourage applications from individuals representing historically underserved, disproportionately impacted, and underrepresented communities. Language interpretation and translation services are available. Applicants can request help for reading, writing, or navigating technology. Oral responses to the application are accepted if needed. The application includes the selection criteria. A committee from the County Office of Emergency Services, Office of Economic Development and Governmental Affairs, Office of Equity and Racial Justice, Office of Sustainability and Environmental Justice, Planning and Development Services, and Public Health Services reviews the applications. 

Workgroup Members Shape Meaningful Change

The workgroup informs regional government climate initiatives offering a diversity of perspectives. The desired outcome is for communities systemically impacted by environmental injustices to have shared power in advancing sustainability efforts that directly affect their lives. The workgroup believes "environmental justice and climate justice are achieved when transformative, collaborative actions are taken to adapt to climate change and address structural and systemic inequities—while upholding Tribal equity and values—so all people and nature can live harmoniously in healthy, safe, prosperous, and inclusive communities."
