Community Impact Grants

Applications for the latest round of Community Impact Grants are being accepted until July 9, 2018 at 3 p.m. DEC's Office of Environmental Justice offers Community Impact Grants to provide community-based organizations with funding for projects that address various environmental and public health concerns in low-income and minority communities that have historically been burdened by environmental problems. The goal of these grants is to empower stakeholders to be actively engaged in finding solutions to the disproportionate burdens EJ communities may experience.

Applicants must apply through the New York State Grants Gateway.
