Tacoma Creatives! We need you to help tell our climate future story!

Apply to Be a Paid Plan Ambassador or Environmental Justice Leader for Tacoma’s Climate Justice Plan!
Tacoma is at a turning point to address the wrongs of our system and make it work for generations into the future.
The City of Tacoma is updating our Environmental Action Planhttps://www.cityoftacoma.org/government/city_departments/environmentalservices/office_of_environmental_policy_and_sustainability/climate/environmental_action_plan with a renewed focus on climate action and environmental justice. From climate impacts, racial justice, health and economic crises, this new Action Plan will serve as a guiding document for shared climate solutions, environmental protections, and community resiliency - putting people first and prioritizing those communities most vulnerable to climate impacts. This Plan, intended for adoption by Tacoma City Council in late 2021, will direct strategies, investments, and actions that work to create a better Tacoma for all.

With your help, Tacoma can center the voices of frontline communities. We need input from diverse community voices to develop a transformational plan, and to help build a safe and sustainable future. We want to hear from communities of color, youth and young adults, and other historically underrepresented, underserved, or vulnerable groups.
