OUR STORY

Committed to a Just and Equitable Gulf

Our Vision

EEECHO envisions a community of stakeholders vested in more productive and resilient neighborhoods, self-reliance and advanced preparedness to adequately adapt to the growing challenges which adversely and disproportionately impact our most vulnerable communities.

Our primary goal is to fully engage our communities in working in areas of alignment with oversight agencies and decision-makers at all levels. 
We go the extra mile to amplify the voices of those we serve.
