New England Environmental Justice Hub
The New England Environmental Justice Hub (EJ Hub) aims to strengthen our region’s environmental justice infrastructure and support community-led solutions. This space helps you find what you need, share knowledge, and build momentum—together.
We serve as connectors and amplifiers, working with philanthropy, public sector allies, capacity builders, and technical assistance providers because progress happens when we collaborate—not gatekeep or work in silos.
The Hub is for advocates, organizers, and partners helping communities advance climate and clean energy work across New England. Here you’ll find funding opportunities, capacity-building resources, state updates, and ways to connect with others doing similar work.
We use MemberSpace to keep this a focused, community-driven environment. Registrations are reviewed to ensure members are actively engaged in environmental justice work—helping the Hub remain relevant, supportive, and collaborative.

The New England Environmental Justice Hub (EJ Hub) is a short-term project of the Grassroots Fund, supported by the Barr Foundation, Merck Family Fund, and The Funders Network.
The concept for the EJ Hub emerged after Communities First Fund, One Rhode Consulting, the Grassroots Fund, and other partners convened more than 250 New England-based environmental justice advocates in in 2023. That gathering highlighted the potential of federal programs like the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act.
Although federal priorities have shifted since then, the Hub is committed to supporting groups that are advancing community-led solutions to crumbling infrastructure, flooding, water and air quality, healthy housing, food systems, renewable energy, and other challenges. To date, the EJ Hub has supported convenings and meetings across the region, spent countless hours strategizing with state partners to sustain momentum, and recently partnered with a movement-building organization to back clean energy projects in New England. From July to November 2025, the Hub is hosting Navigation Sessions and Office Hours featuring the Environmental Protection Network (EPN) and the New England Environmental Finance Center (NEEFC) to help advocates and organizations continue advancing their projects.
