The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering the Environmental Justice Green Jobs Development Pilot Grant, a significant initiative designed to support projects that promote Green Job Training and Green Job Placement. This grant is for the explicit purpose of empowering underserved populations, including minority, low-income, or indigenous communities, who are disproportionately impacted by environmental harms and risks. Successful proposals must identify and address a specific local environmental and public health issue within these communities. All projects under this pilot must be performed within the EPA’s Region 6 states: Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. This program aims to foster sustainable economic development and environmental equity by creating new opportunities in green sectors for those most in need.
