Climate Change, Social Justice, and Local Resiliency: Public Health and Environmental Justice

Industrial and government infrastructure impacts health and quality of life. So how can policies be changed to support environmentally resilient communities? And how can all people feel empowered to voice their right to healthy, safe, and environmentally resilient neighborhoods? Grassroots activists and a healthcare professional will discuss policy and sustainability efforts to address some of these challenges that neighborhoods in Providence face.

SPEAKERS: Monica Huertas – People’s Port Authority; Vatic Kuumba – Providence Racial and Environmental Justice Committee; Dr. Dannie Ritchie – Community Health Innovations of Rhode Island
