We are planning to host events in all five boroughs to gather community input - recommended solutions - and environmental and climate justice issues impacting all of the city's environmental justice communities. If you would like to participate in that, please <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSfz0Rfvarw8KL6ntKfO2W9xC6yIXzyIAKn8waImhKz2eiczPQ\/viewform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click here<\/a> to let us know and we will alert you to future events.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4><strong>Community Engagement Sessions<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nFor the EJNYC Plan to succeed, it is essential that the voices of environmental justice communities across the city be included. That is why WE ACT has teamed up with community-based organizations across the city for a series of community engagement sessions. Please sign-up for the one nearest you, and help us make sure that the EJNYC Plan reflects your needs.\r\n\r\n<strong>Staten Island, Snug Harbor Cultural Center<\/strong>\r\nSaturday, October 17th\u00a0from 12:00-3:00 PM\r\n1000 Richmond Terrace, Staten Island, NY 10301\r\nCommunity Partners:\u00a0Neighborhoods for a Sustainable Future (Steering Committee Member), Non-Profit Staten Island, Northfield Community LDC, Youth Wins, &amp; Snug Harbor\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/community.weact.org\/weact_s_ejnyc_community_engagement_session\">RSVP<\/a>\r\n\r\n<strong>The Bronx, Fordham University's McShane Campus Center<\/strong>\r\nSaturday, November 7th from 11:00 AM-2:00 PM\r\n441 East Fordham Road, Bronx, NY 10458\r\nCommunity Partners:\u00a0South Bronx Unite (Steering Committee Member), Bronx Council for Environmental Quality, &amp; Van Cortlandt Park Alliance\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/community.weact.org\/weact_s_ejnyc_bronx_community_engagement_session_charrette\">RSVP<\/a>\r\n\r\n<strong>Brooklyn, Dweck Cultural Center at the Brooklyn Public Library<\/strong>\r\nSaturday, December 5th\u00a0from 11:00 AM-2:00 PM\r\n10 Grand Army Plaza, Brooklyn, NY 11238\r\nCommunity Partners:\u00a0NHS Brooklyn (Steering Committee Member), Newtown Creek Alliance, 350 Brooklyn, Brooklyn Movement Center, Voice of Gowanus, GreenCity Force, Prospect Park Alliance, Workers Justice Project, Cypress Hills LDC, Sure We Can, Green Guerillas, Fort Greene Park Conservancy, &amp; The Opportunity Hub\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/community.weact.org\/weact_s_ejnyc_brooklyn_community_engagement_session_charrette\">RSVP<\/a>\r\n\r\n<strong>Queens, Idlewild Environmental Center<\/strong>\r\nSaturday, December 12th\u00a0from 11:00 AM-2:00 PM\r\n222-02 149th Avenue, Springfield Gardens, NY 11413\r\nCommunity Partners:\u00a0Eastern Queens Alliance (Steering Committee Member), Guardians of Flushing Bay, Southeast Queens Residential Environmental Justice Coalition, &amp; Access Oasis Garden\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/community.weact.org\/weact_s_ejnyc_queens_community_engagement_session_charettte\">RSVP<\/a>\r\n\r\n<strong>Lower East Side, Henry Street Settlement Early Childhood Education Center<\/strong>\r\nSaturday, January 9th\u00a0from 11:00 AM-2:00 PM\r\n301 Henry Street, New York, NY 10002\r\nCommunity Partners:\u00a0Henry Street Settlement, Manhattan Solid Waste Advisory Board, LES Ecology Center, &amp; Harlem One Stop\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/community.weact.org\/weact_s_ejnyc_manhattan_community_engagement_session_charette\">RSVP<\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/climate.cityofnewyork.us\/topic\/environmental-justice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5595\" src=\"https:\/\/weact.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/EJNYC-Changes.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"665\" height=\"755\" \/><\/a>","include_drop_cap":false}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 -
