EJ Clearinghouse
Introduction
On April 21, 2023, President Biden signed Executive Order 14906 Revitalizing Our Nation’s Commitment to Environmental Justice for All which included the establishment of an environmental justice (EJ) Clearinghouse to be a public, internet-based, whole-of-government clearinghouse composed of culturally and linguistically appropriate and accessible materials related to environmental justice.
The EJ Clearinghouse below is a compilation of resources to assist EJ partners. EPA relies on the continued submission of proposed resources to be added to this EJ Clearinghouse. If you have resources you would like to be included for consideration, please use the form provided below.
