South Texas Environmental Justice Network

The South Texas Environmental Justice Network was formed at the start of 2020 and includes numerous organizations, campaigns, individuals, and the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribal leadership from the South Texas region that challenge the status quo and corporate power to build a future aligned in values, principles, and praxis that centers on the social and environmental health of local Native and BIPOC communities living in reciprocal relationships with our shared natural home.

Our network seeks to end the environmental, social, and economic injustices borne on the Latinx and Indigenous communities of South Texas. We aim to do this by building a community amongst regional advocates and empowering historically marginalized voices to speak up and be heard. By doing so, we want to radically change the oppressive systems that have harmed our communities and extracted wealth from the people and land of South Texas.
