SustainUS is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization of young people advancing sustainable development and youth empowerment in the United States. Through proactive education, research, and advocacy at the policy-making and grassroots levels, we are building a future in which all people recognize the inherent equality and interdependence of social, economic, and environmental sustainability.
SustainUS was asked to present on environmental justice and anti-oppression at the University of Chicago's recent Student Activism Conference. Chair Kyle Gracey talked about how to achieve social justice in environmental organizing, both internally within a campaign and externally on issues.
