Center for Community Energy and Environmental Justice

SDSU’s Center for Community Energy and Environmental Justice (CCEEJ) aims to strengthen community organizations' capacity and effectiveness in applying to, managing, and implementing environmental and energy justice grants and programs.

We help community organizations by providing technical assistance. This includes conducting environmental and energy justice needs assessment and analyses, facilitating navigation of government systems, identifying grant opportunities, and increasing grant getting and administration capacity. We also support decision-making participation and train community champions. You can read our FAQs and find more information about what we do.
