Communities must gather information, assess, and understand the problem(s) before they can thoroughly develop a plan and then implement those plans to address and eventually resolve the problem(s).

The Valley Creek Clean Up and Smithfileld Nature Center is a project proposed by DH-SCLT Environmental Justice Committee and proposes partnership with Black Warrior River Society and Alabama Rivers Alliance. This project focuses on a six block long stretch of Valley Creek (from Center Street to 4th At N) bordering the Historic Smithfield Community to the south. Light industrial business and carcasses of abandoned ones produce toxic runoff after storms, with little to no storm drainage control. Valley Creek, which is still ecologically vibrant, catches debris and chemicals from downtown Birmingham, Alabama, and it is in need of consistent cleaning, love and care.

The DHSCLT Environmental Justice Commitment spearheads our interest and involvement in environmental justice work.
Dynamite Hill-Smithfield Community Land Trust is committed to regenerative and earth protective practices in all of our land, agricultural and water work, and in our design vision of permanently affordable ecohousing. We advocate with environmental justice partners on issues and policies affecting the well being of community members in Smithfield and Birmingham at large.
Our long term regenerative community development vision includes rescuing the land occupied by absent businesses that runs along this four block stretch parallel and adjacent to Valley Creek, regenerating the land and structures for community recreational use and nature preservation.

In Spring 2023 we finished Phase I of our "People's Plan for the Compensation and Buy-Out of North Birmingham 35th Ave N Superfund Site Residents". Phase I included creating a Street Team, comprised primarily of youth and long time Superfund Site residents. The Street Team canvassed around 1,000 households through door-to-door canvassing, phone banking registered voters, and placed based canvassing during mutual aid events. As a portion of the feedback we received from residents, we collected over 200 complete survey results about people's priorities for compensation and buy-out. In July 2023 we started Phase II, which includes compiling key results from the survey and developing the results into a "People's Compensation Preliminary Report" for public release. We aim to release the "People's Compensation Preliminary Report" by the end of October 2023. In early winter 2023 we will begin working on Phase III. Phase III will include using the "People's Compensation Preliminary Report", along with other data and feedback we received during Phase I, to draft comprehensive plan called "People's Compensation Ask". After creating this draft, we will create an expanded outreach strategy, including community input session meeting, to solicit additional community feedback about the plan. We will use this feedback to make final edits to the plan. In 2024 we will release a final version of the "People's Compensation Ask", and use this plan to dictate our organizing and advocacy efforts for 2024. Our goal is to use these efforts to continue organizing residents, increasing civil engagement, and achieving just compensation for Supersite Site residents who want to stay, and buy-out for those who want to relocate.

Environmental Democracy Project (EDP) exist to enhance community agency by using environmental education, civic advocacy and citizen litigation to make the 17 principles of environmental justice tangible and real within the Environmental Justice communities of California, with current focus on East Oakland.

EDP's current focus is investigating and mitigating the environmental health impacts of the explosion of "sidewalk communities" on both unsheltered people and the neighborhoods were encampments are located. Specifically, we intend to develop a community based action to address the concretization of dumping, and the under-regulation and over-proliferation of both legal, and illegal auto-related businesses in the 40 x 40 block radius known collectively as Deep East Oakland.

These auto-related "businesses", including repair and towing, are engaged in painting, dismantling, storage and rental vehicles of non functional vehicles for the purpose of housing in ways that directly violate several layers of environmental and civil rights law. Everyday vehicles are now routinely set on fire as a way of disposing of them. This course of business is likely to have tremendous impacts on the air quality and health of the surrounding residents. East Oakland has miles of burned and dismantled vehicles in the industrial areas including the area surrounding the Coliseum DMV and at least two or three such automobiles on every residential street. The regular dumping and setting on fire of vehicle and dumping of industrial and other business trash has presented an extreme hazard to air, soil and water quality within the entire 40 x 40 section of the City of Oakland.

Over the course of 2023, EDP has been working to build collaborations and acquiring tools for the implementation of both a) a community based climate action research project and a community based air monitoring program. OAK Climate Action is a community research collaborative, who work under the state-wide cross-institutional initiative called CAPECA or Community Academic Partnerships to advance Equity-focused Climate Action. Our team includes community leaders from West Oakland Cultural Action Network, Hoover Foster Resident Action Council, as well as faculty and students from Department of City & Regional Planning at UC Berkeley and California College of the Arts. The focus of this effort to to develop a community based research project to investigate and mitigate the issue of illegal dumping and trash management in Oakland.

Additionally, EDP has been working with partners Sonoma Technology, and the Oakland Based Center for Environmental Health, to start a community air monitoring program. EDP has purchase a set of reusable handheld air monitors along with an accompanying curriculum called Kids Making Sense. The curriculum includes an advanced module that teaches how to build the air monitor in addition to the science of air quality. By working with local youth and community groups, EDP aims to train 100 community air monitors in 2024. We will use hand held air monitoring technology coupled with head-worn live streaming video cameras to gather information as we clean our blocks.

While EDP has already purchased a complete set of monitors from Sonoma Technology, EDP is in need of funding to staff a position to implement the air monitoring project and the provide stipends to community researchers in the CAPECA OAK Climate Action project.

A project in mind is to create a couple community gardens in low-income/ rural communities. This will help to improve healthy food access and the priority would be to distribute to seniors and families in need. While creating community and sense of belonging. Community gardens help reduce stress, depression and its a great way to stay active and gain knowledge from others.

With much-needed help of resources it would be great to have them to help the youth to attend a leadership academy where they will learn about the issues that surround and affect our communities. Beginning with the history of how it all began. We can teach them about pesticides, water issues, air quality, and the connection to climate change.

There are many other projects that Comunidades Aliadas Tomando Accion would love to begin. We are just looking for the type of funding that will support our efforts.

Mycelium Healing Project - a Native and Indigenous youth-led program. Through the use of mycelium, Spirit of the Sun Native and Indigenous youth leaders, with their elders and community, will come together to heal our soils, water and air damaged by major corporations like Suncor that have dumped pollutants onto our sacred lands we care-take, live, play, commune with and learn from. Youth, Elders, families and community leaders of the area will then continue throughout the next few years and beyond to inoculate their front and backyard soil spaces, gardens and community food growing spaces with the mycelium they’ve grown in order to remediate their soil and Indigenous foodscapes to continue to build healthy soil and ecosystems for all of our communities.

As mentioned above, #1 the issues surrounding conservation strategies, so as to genuinely protect the North Branch riparian corridor will most likely need additional funding (TPL is on the LISFF/NFWF team NCCD lead nonprofit). #2 A qualified design team, that genuinely prioritizes conservation and revival of the North Branch riparian zone/corridor is needed. Too many Connecticut design teams are focused on transportation goals, and so are willing to divide/fragment rather than expand/increase neighborhood scale ecosystem.

Partnership development will be a key aspect of the Phase III subgrants as well., We (North Central Conservation District lead) are currently working on a Long Island Sound Futures Fund (NFWF) grant to update the 2010 North Branch Park River Watershed Management Plan. This work will be completed spring 2024.

Conservation and design of an "Emerald Necklace" (i.e. Boston's network of distinct parks along the Muddy River) along the North Branch Park River, which flows (approximately 5 miles) through Hartford's northwestern neighborhoods. Although the North Branch is impaired by upstream, suburban municipalities (Bloomfield and West Hartford), the State of Connecticut and City of Hartford could support neighborhood efforts to advance conservation and revitalization of the last landscapes along the North Branch. Support for three areas of professional expertise are needed:
1) Research strategies that can propose 21st century conservation and maintenance of the North Branch riparian zone/corridor. At this time land/stream are property parcels owned by city and state government, institutions (hospital, schools, and museums) and homeowners. Although property owners, including the state do not have the skill sets to protect the volatile riparian corridor, can a mosaic of ownership be successfully assembled with respect to long-term protection of the ecosystem?
2) In addition to securing long-term conservation of the last landscapes along the North Branch, there is a need to hire a qualified ecology/landscape and urban design team to develop a detailed master plan for the future of the North Branch riparian zone/corridor. The design team must include ecologists that can guide designers through conservation of an unusually old, intact forest, as well as revival of several derelict floodplains that are abandoned parking lots; appropriate, (safe) points of public access/scenic; and design proposals for educational stewardship. The design team needs to explore ways to ensure that vibrant neighborhood economy can emerge around this future linear park (and bird/wildlife refuge) system. There are opportunities for tall building affordable/luxury housing at the interface of urban/nature.
3) The cluster of K-12, higher ed and cultural institutions along the North Branch is unique: ~ 10+ (multiple academies are located in various K-12 school buildings) schoolyards properties, three institutions of higher education (UConn Law, Univ of Hartford, and Hartford International University for Religion &Peace {formerly Hartford Seminary} own property along the North Branch. At this time leadership at most of these schools do not grasp the need and opportunity to form a positive 21st century educational program rooted in cultural heritage, yet embracing connectivity of ecosystems along the North Branch riparian zone/corridor as a path to resiliency. In 1871, Frederick Law Olmsted Sr. wrote a letter recommending urban design strategies to conserve the beauty of the North Branch. Now is the time to fund aspirations that can secure gift beautiful landscapes replete with ecosystem benefits to future generations.

We would like to establish a community-focused air quality program in Adel, Georgia by employing Wi-Fi enabled, solar-energy-powered air quality sensors. This program will supplement the existing federal air quality monitoring program and address a data gap in the southern part of Georgia, a region that is traditionally considered with good air quality but recently faces potential industrial pollution from the world's largest wood pellet plant. Data collected through this program will be fed into a risk monitoring tool developed by volunteers to provide sustainable data of air quality in and near our neighborhood. This data collection initiative will not only improve the community's awareness of environmental health risks in our community but also support potential legal action to ensure a transparent decision-making process in the local government.

LJRN’s mission is to support our descendant communities of Southern LA as we repair, recover, and thrive from climate disaster and environmental injustice.

Our network shares a uniting long-term vision of climate and environmental justice that prioritizes just and equitable investments in economic diversification and a just transition, renewable energy, critical infrastructure, waste reduction and communities of care. This vision supports safe, well-paying jobs, reduction of post-disaster waste, resilient and fortified construction, and ultimately strengthens community and economic resilience on the frontlines of climate disaster and environmental injustice.

We are seeking funds for a multi-faceted community development project in Union, LA, a historic African-American town in St James Parish (Cancer Alley). This area is overburdened by industrial pollution, in particular from the Nucor Steel facility, the Mosaic-Faustina Fertilizer plant, and the Occidental Chemical plant. One of LJRN's founders and current staff member, Melissa, was born and raised in this community. Her parents still live in the area, a community where LJRN has done extensive work for the past two years.

We intend to acquire several acres of land in the area, which we'd develop into a small-scale farming project for use in environmental education and outreach efforts in the surrounding community. Additionally, we will implement a nature-based stormwater management plan to reduce risk of flooding. Finally, we would use our acreage of land as a site to host additional trainings, including disaster preparedness workshops (no-nail roof tarping, home gutting, drywall, flooring, etc), legal clinics, and community science/community air monitoring. Over the longer term, we would like to build or acquire a permanent structure on that land, which could be developed into a solar-powered community center for use as a staging area or relief site in the event of a major climate disaster or chemical release incident.

LJRN will lean on our existing partnerships to achieve this work, with groups that include: Inclusive Louisiana, the Descendants Project, Greater New Orleans Interfaith Climate Coalition, Healthy Gulf, Tulane Environmental Law Clinic, Common Ground Relief, Emergency Legal Responders, CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort), the Footprint Project, Taproot.Earth, RISE St James, and others.
