EJScreen is EPA's environmental justice mapping and screening tool that provides a nationally consistent dataset and approach for combining environmental and demographic socioeconomic indicators. To get started, EJScreen users choose a geographic area, like a brownfields site, a neighborhood, community corridor, or larger area. The tool then provides demographic, socioeconomic, and environmental information for that area, which can provide valuable insights into your community and be easily incorporated into Brownfields grant proposals. Learn more by visiting the EJScreen website. Curious about how to best use EJScreen to help you prepare for your competitive EPA Grant proposals? Check out this previously recorded webinar, EJScreen 101: Mapping Tools and EPA Competitive Grants Webinar, to learn how to harness this powerful tool for your proposals!

Loren Waters and Restoring Néške'emāne Selected for 2024 Young Tribal Leaders Art Contest Gallery

We are so excited and proud of our KSU Tribal TAB Partner and friend, Loren Waters, for being selected to have her work displayed as part of the Young Tribal Leaders Art Contest. The contest is hosted by the Bureau of Indian Affairs Division of Environmental Services and Cultural Resource Management. Loren (Kiowa Tribe and Cherokee Nation) is an Indigenous filmmaker and artist who we had the extreme pleasure of working with on the production of this film beginning in 2020. Restoring Néške'emāne is a 12-minute award-winning documentary film that tells the story of Damon Dunbar (Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes) and his decades' long effort to remediate and revision the Concho Indian Boarding School. The film was made possible through a collaboration between KSU Tribal TAB & Partners and the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes and emphasizes how the story of the land and the journey of the community are intrinsic components of tribal brownfields projects. Check out the 2024 Young Tribal Leaders Art Contest Gallery to view all of the magnificent pieces!

EPA Grants Community Library of Frequently Asked Questions



The Community Library of Frequently Asked Questions is a comprehensive resource based on questions asked by participants of EPA’s grants webinars. Use the library to quickly find answers to questions about applying for grants, executing grants, and complying with EPA grants policies and requirements. In many cases, the answers provide links to more details and additional training materials.

You can filter questions by topic (for example, Budget, Certification and Compliance, Drawdowns, among others) or use the search control to find questions based on a keyword. The library of FAQs will be updated with new questions and answers as EPA grants webinars are held. 

If you have questions or feedback regarding the Community Library of FAQs or EPA grants, please send an email to EPA_Grants_Info@epa.gov.
