Community organizing will enhance ongoing work and establish new efforts to advocate for a just transition. As members and leaders of various environmental justice coalitions, we are often in spaces where energy justice is discussed. However, even in these spaces, conversations can be highly technical and are limited to those in attendance.
Through our organizing, Solstice Initiative will break down barriers to accessing information and host events to increase participation and democratize our energy system. Our vision of community-led energy works at the nexus of energy justice, racial justice, and environmental justice to provide all households, regardless of race, ethnicity, income, and homeownership status, access to build intergenerational wealth and lasting energy solutions.
