Environmental Equity Information Institute (E2I2)

Our Mission:

E2I2 is an environmental justice nonprofit organization that partners with communities to translate environmental data into community action. Through accessible data, innovative technology, and community-based education, we build the capacity of communities and grassroots organizations to create measurable, lasting improvements to their environmental, health outcomes, and quality of life.

Our Vision:

Our vision is a future where historically disenfranchised communities live free from harmful pollutants and damaging climate change impacts. Communities have access to actionable data about environmental threats and use their knowledge, skills, resources, and technologies to translate data into sustainable, community-driven protective interventions, programs, and policies.

As a result, whole communities experience improved physical and mental health outcomes and increased quality of life, including expanded employment and economic opportunities.

Our Program Pillars:

We achieve our mission and vision through five program pillars. See our website for more details. 

1. Environmental Data Analysis and Visualization
2. Environmental Data Literacy Education and Training
3. Community Research and Program Evaluation
4. Community Engagement and Collaboration
5. Sustainable Technology Solutions and Technical Support

Environmental Justice addresses the unequal exposure to environmental pollution and climate impacts experienced by people of color, women, low-income people, people with disabilities, and people with other marginalized status. 

Since January 2025, we have seen vital publicly accessible environmental data disappear—data that communities rely on to track pollution and defend their health. As a trusted data partner to environmental justice communities, E2I2’s mission is more urgent than ever.
