ABOUT JUST SOLUTIONS
As a national, movement partner organization, our goal is to broaden and deepen the understanding and implementation of equitable and effective climate policies and programs at a scale and pace that match the urgency of the climate crisis.
As an organization, we partner with communities disproportionately impacted by climate change to turn their priorities and ideas into policies and laws. We draw from community-created solutions and invest deeply in “innovator” states where justice-centered organizations and coalitions have demonstrated the vision, strategy, and political power to win and implement climate policies that strengthen their communities’ health, economic security, and resiliency.
