As the COVID-19 crisis further transforms our social, economic, and political realities, we hope that this webinar and our most recent report, “Rethinking Local Control: Placing Environmental Justice and Civil Rights at the Heart of Land Use Decision-Making,” can provide some helpful perspective as we collectively respond to the ongoing public health crisis.
As we work to adapt to these uncertain times, we must be mindful of the needs of the most impacted community residents who continue to bear the brunt of inequitable and unjust policies
