Organizing for Environmental Justice in Chicago's Northside

As one of Loyola’s Social Justice Interns, Aana Shenai worked as an intern with ONE Northside, a community organizing non-profit based in Chicago’s northside. In addition to learning foundational organizing principles, Aana designed a popular training as her internship project that focused on showing community members the intersections between the climate, environment and energy. Her other work included supporting the ONS Green Schools Campaign by attending school research visits, helping schools find funding for green projects, and building relationships with community partners.
