How to Create a Project Area Map Using EJ SCREEN
In this video, you will get a short, step-by-step tutorial on how to create a project area map for your Community Change Grant (CCG) application using the EJ SCREEN tool.
Notice: This video was made before the recent EJ Screen update and NOFO Modification. We are in the process of updating the materials. Please note that all the steps for creating a project area map portrayed in this video are the same. The only changes are the vibrancy of the map colors and the name of the places tab. Instead of clicking on the "Justice 40/IRA" layer, you now click on the "Designated Disadvantaged Communities" places tab to locate the EPA IRA Disadvantaged Communities Map layer.
