To develop a vision that is true to our communities and an agenda that successfully moves us forward, all of APEN are participating in this key process.
Two convergences of APEN’s staff, leaders, board members and key allies to develop our EJ vision and agenda is planned for this Spring and a final agenda will come out in early fall.
First Retreat
Our primary goal is to mark a vision for our communities 50 years out. It will be informed by major economic, environmental and political shifts in the landscape, and a look at innovative solutions that can meet the needs of our communities.
Second Retreat
We will outline an EJ policy agenda that moves us to realize the vision we developed from retreat #1. The EJ policy agenda will identify our own innovative solutions that match our community’s needs, as well as look at opportunities to get us there.
