About us
The Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition (MEJC) is a statewide coalition working to achieve a clean, healthy and safe environment for Michigan’s most vulnerable residents. MEJC works to achieve this goal in alignment with the EJ Principles through increasing knowledge, enhancing networks and taking action for systemic change. We are a membership-led organization from diverse backgrounds and identities. MEJC convened in 2011 to grow the environmental justice movement in Michigan. Every two years MEJC hosts the EJ Statewide Summit to bring together local EJ groups, leaders of color, and tribal members to strategize and amplify our fights. In 2022 we hosted the 5th EJ Summit, led a major campaign in energy democracy, provided movement education, and engaged in the Get Out the Vote efforts in Michigan reaching over 125,000 EJ voters. We continue in our climate justice work in Michigan to push for an ambitious climate agenda.
