Creation Care and Environmental Justice Task Force Survey

The reason for this survey is to gather information regarding what creation care and environmental justice work is happening around the Diocese of Hawai’i.   We hope to make this information available to all Episcopal and Lutheran churches in Hawai’i, to larger ecumenical church networks and interfaith organizations in Hawai’i, and to national church networks.  This is meant in no way to compare and rank the work of churches or communities.  Rather, the overall purpose of this information is for more effective collaboration—at local, state, and national levels.  We hope to strengthen what work we are already doing, better meet resources to needs where possible, and partner with other organizations to more effectively care for creation and those at particular risk by the changing climate.  

INSTRUCTIONS:  Please check all that apply.  If no option is relevant or listed, please check “other” and list or explain in comments. Your honest input is valuable.
