EPN's national environmental policy work focuses on preserving, protecting, and improving public health and the environment by ensuring that EPA advances protective policies, budgets, and institutional changes.
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.
EPN provides support to existing federal employees (see Federal Employee Resources). In addition, in partnership with the EPA Alumni Association, EPN conducts roundtables for potential employees to learn more about what it’s like to work for EPA and provide helpful ideas about navigating the federal hiring process and USAJobs. In addition, our members serve as a resource to teachers and career counselors; guest lecture and speak on panels; and mentor students, young professionals, and current EPA staff.
