“At the banquet table of nature, there are **no reserved seats**. You get what you can take, and you keep what you can hold. If you can't take anything, you won't get anything, and if you can't hold anything, you won't keep anything. And you can't take anything without organization.” ―**A. Philip Randolph**

Community Forum on Identification of Overburdened Communities for HEAL and CCA

Upcoming community forums on March 11 and March 12, hosted by the Washington State Department of Ecology. We will discuss budget equity reporting under the HEAL Act and the Climate Commitment Act, and how overburdened communities may be identified for this specific process. Please forward this invitation to others who may be interested in attending. If you’re unable to attend the online community forum, you can register, and we will send the materials and recording to you.

March 11, 2026, from 6:00 - 7:00 p.m. PT

Register for our March 11 online community forum

March 12, 2026, from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m. PT

Register for our March 12 online community forum

The presentation content will be the same for each forum.

Please note: This process and determination is completely separate and distinct from the identification of overburdened communities highly impacted by air pollution, through which the Air Quality Program identified 16 communities in 2023. It is also distinct from other maps and determinations of overburdened communities by other entities and for other purposes outside of tracking expenditures under CCA and HEAL. Additionally, this process should not be confused with the Environmental Health Disparities map maintained by the Department of Health.
