we're working towards an equitable & Just greater Pittsburgh

Equity and justice are urgent needs, in Pittsburgh and elsewhere. In the face of COVID-19, ongoing environmental degradation, climate change, and persistent racism and discrimination in many forms, something needs to be done. Equitable and Just Greater Pittsburgh (EJGP) is a cross-issue, cross-neighborhood network of over 150 different organizations, community groups, and residents working to secure an equitable and just Greater Pittsburgh.  

​

Since January 2020, EJGP has established itself as a hub for networks, organizations, and individuals to communicate and work together across sectors and neighborhoods. In that time, we assembled the Platform for an Equitable and Just Greater Pittsburgh, a multi-issue equity and justice platform relevant to the local context. We continue to revise and add to this platform. Currently, we also support campaigns that network partners are leading. 

​

In this network, we prioritize the needs and voices of those in need of resources. We build across neighborhoods and across issue areas. By connecting as a network, we support each other as we work together to imagine and create a better, equitable, and just future!
