Spotlight on:ESC's Dismantling Racism ProjectFrom 2004-2008, ESC worked with the staff and board to develop a shared analysis of racism, and began to address the individual, cultural, and institutional manifestations of racism within the organization, and to organize for change based on that shared understanding. Although most participants had been through various diversity and anti-racism trainings, none had gone through a process as extensive or intensive as the one on which ESC embarked.
In order to preserve and honor the work, and to share our learning, we've written a short report about the process. To see the report, please click here. _______________________________________________________ |
The Environmental Support Center
promotes the quality of the natural environment, human health and community sustainability by increasing the organizational effectiveness of local, state and regional organizations working on environmental issues and for environmental justice.
In accordance with our strategic plan, the Environmental Support Center will not be posting deadlines or accepting unsolicited applications for the first half of 2009. We will conduct outreach to help groups with grants and subsidies based on available restricted funds and special projects. Read more...
