Renew is a multi-racial regional coalition across the New England states, which has brought together environmental justice advocates, frontline communities, Indigenous tribes, organized labor, racial justice organizations, and youth groups.
In early 2020, these organizations developed a detailed and ambitious regional policy vision that takes intersectionality seriously, simultaneously addressing the climate crisis, mass unemployment and racial injustice. Renew coalitions in each state shaped that vision into policies tailored to their home states, and are running ambitious advocacy campaigns to make those policies a reality.
