| Organization Acronym | |
| Organization Description | We are a non-partisan grassroots group of activist health care professionals working with our communities to grow the movement on the climate and ecologic emergency. We are antiracist, intersectional and anti-colonial: we are inclusive and strive to elevate all voices, while examining and working to address the unequal burdens of climate change. We use a long-term approach to address the complex interconnected issues and structural problems contributing to this emergency, and stand in solidarity with Indigenous land and water protectors. We use our health lens and evidence-informed approach to bring light to structural injustices that impact the earth we share. |
