EPN's national environmental policy work focuses on ensuring that EPA advances protective policies, budgets, and institutional changes, and providing litigation support to EPN partners.
EPN’s pro bono Capacity-Building Technical Assistance Program provides assistance to communities; NGOs; and state, local, and tribal agencies disproportionately impacted by environmental and health issues. EPN's network of volunteers assists organizations to more effectively and meaningfully participate in government decision-making by helping them navigate EPA, potential grants, regulatory processes, federal policies, and publicly available data to support their work.
The Environmental Protection Network supports current and former EPA civil servants. Along with our partners, we defend EPA staff facing harassment and intimidation, work to counter attempts to traumatize the federal workforce, and assist those considering a transition to the private sector. Additionally, we offer connections with EPA alumni through one-on-one mentoring and education.
EPN, in partnership with L4GG, provides biweekly-ish updates on current funding opportunities and other resources for our network of partners.
