SUMMARY:Michigan Environmental Justice Summit
DESCRIPTION:
  The Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition 
 (MEJC) is convening a summit to bring together 
 groups and individuals from throughout the 
 state who seek to achieve a clean, healthy and 
 safe environment for Michiganders by working 
 with all residents to hold public and private 
 institutions accountable to the communities 
 for whom they serve and in which they operate. 
 This summit will provide perspectives and 
 stories on environmental justice (EJ) organizing
