WHAT WE DO

POLICY AND ADVOCACY

Everyone deserves healthy communities; neighborhoods where everyone has an affordable and safe home, access to clean and affordable water, access to safe and healthy food, access to clean air and healthy soil and where health and equity are considered when decisions are being made.

Just-us
(nothing for us without us)

Advocating for a Green Amendment

DWEJ is advocating, along with other Michiganders, to place language that will “ensure that our rights to a healthy environment are given the highest level of legal protection” in the Bill of Rights section of Michigan’s constitution.
