​

SCEN4SC is the next phase of the "Southern Communities for a Green New Deal" Policy Platform, which launched in 2021, as an effort to enhance our understanding of local issues alongside community members, support progress on resiliency, sustainability, and justice-centered projects across the Southeast, and amplify grassroots leaders' voices for increased reach and impact.

​

For 2023, SCEN is prioritizing efforts focused on disaster preparedness, flooding, dangerous heat, and fossil fuel infrastructure/energy transition in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi. Through our SCEN for Southern Communities (SCEN4SC) Tour, we aim to enhance and support the "on the ground" projects local grassroots organizations were already planning or considering this year, by providing modest but critical financial and capacity resources to their projects.
