Recognizing Martin Luther King Jr. Day

We would like to inform you that in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, CTLCV will be closed on Monday, January 15th.​

As an organization dedicated to environmental conservation and social justice, we believe it is crucial to recognize and pay homage to the profound contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His tireless efforts and leadership played a pivotal role in advancing civil rights and fostering a more inclusive and equitable society.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is not only a day of remembrance but also an opportunity to reflect on the ongoing work towards equality and justice. Dr. King's legacy serves as an inspiration as we strive to promote environmental protection and advocate for sustainable policies in Connecticut.

In honoring this day, we acknowledge the interconnectedness of social justice and environmental issues. Environmental justice calls for the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all individuals, irrespective of race, color, national origin, or income, in the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. This day prompts us to address historical and persistent environmental injustices that disproportionately affect marginalized communities.

We encourage everyone to take a moment on Martin Luther King Jr. Day to reflect on the significance of his contributions and the relevance of his ideals to our environmental mission. By embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion, we can collectively work towards a more just and sustainable future for all.

Please be advised that our office will resume operations on Tuesday, January 16th, and we will promptly respond to any pending inquiries or requests.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
