Vision

•Encouraging sustainable development
•Influencing economic vitality in the communities we serve
Background

Since 1994, DWEJ has been a voice for environmental justice in Michigan. Historically, minority and low-income populations have suffered disproportionately from environmental pollution, often because they have the least capacity to respond. DWEJ is dedicated to empowering urban residents to take a meaningful role in the decision-making process surrounding environmental concerns in their own communities.

We are also about building connections—between jobs and a healthy environment, community development and environmental justice, community-driven policy and economic development.
