Getting Your Infrastructure Project Funded: Funding 101 for EJ Communities

EPA and ICMA are pleased to offer a free webinar, Getting Your Infrastructure Project Funded: Funding 101 for EJ Communities, on August 22, 2023, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. ET.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill and the Inflation Reduction Act’s investments in infrastructure, site remediation and redevelopment, and Green Bank funding means that more resources than ever before will be available to states, tribes, local governments, and communities. But how can environmental justice and disadvantaged communities access these resources, and how can state and federal agencies meet their Justice40 Framework goals? This workshop for environmental justice advocates and other interested parties will help you become an informed navigator of funding resources for your community. Through case studies, an overview of funding opportunities, and interactive Q&A, you will learn what resources are available, how to best position your community to access them, and how to navigate the application process at the federal and state level.
Join us to:
  • Learn how EJ communities have leveraged federal and state infrastructure resources to meet community needs and priorities.
  • Learn what kinds of grants and technical assistance resources will be available in 2023 and 2024 at the state and local level and when applications are due.
  • Learn how to tell your story and write a competitive application that emphasizes how your community can help state and federal agencies reimagine how their funding or technical assistance can make an immediate impact in your community.
  • Explore how agencies can advance Justice40 goals to drive resources into EJ and disadvantaged communities.

The webinar will be recorded and available on-demand. Registration is limited.
