Wednesday, May 8, 6:00pm-7:00pm ET
On Wednesday, May 8 from 6-7 PM, we learned how your organization can apply for grant opportunities to save money through the Inflation Reduction Act.
We also provided more information about the Pennsylvania and West Virginia Technical Assistance Center (TCTAC) to implement the Justice40 initiative, a goal where 40% of the overall benefits of certain Federal climate, clean energy, affordable and sustainable housing, and other investments flow to disadvantaged communities that are marginalized by underinvestment and overburdened by pollution.
