Abstract

The Environmental Justice Index (EJI) is a high-level mapping and screen tool that provides data on the health impacts of different measures of environmental justice across the U.S. at the census tract level based on data from several federal resources. It includes an EJI ranking at the community level (census tract) based on environmental burden, social vulnerability, and health vulnerability.
