Organizing for environmental justice in north texas since 1994
Our Mission
Downwinders at Risk Education Fund is dedicated to taking effective action on behalf of those being harmed by air pollution. Our goal is to build a strong grassroots constituency and create new strategies for clean air in North Texas. We do this by informing, connecting, and mobilizing citizens to become active participants in the decision-making that affects the air we breathe. In doing so, we improve both the quality of our air and the quality of our democracy.
OUR COMMITMENT
- We’re committed to working for environmental justice with communities impacted by the worst pollution;
- to deliver the best science to those communities;
- to making decisions about pollution and polluters more democratic;
- to providing solutions to the problems we spotlight, and to funding staff devoted to grassroots empowerment.
