# [Funder Briefing: Environmental Justice Cohort](https://progressivemultiplier.fund/insights/environmental-justice-cohort-briefing)

 Written by [Violeta Bermudez](https://progressivemultiplier.fund/insights/author/violeta-bermudez) | Jun 22, 2022 7:41:12 AM

On June 15th, [the inaugural class of our Environmental Justice cohort](https://progressivemultiplier.fund/meet-our-environmental-justice-grantee-partners/) shared stories of their journey to strengthen their independent revenue programs to build more power and scale. Now, as the first graduating cohort, these five groups will pilot a peer mentor/participatory grant-making model at Progressive Multiplier, advising on what groups and experiments to include for the incoming cohort. 

This program wouldn’t be possible without our founding funding partner, [The JPB Foundation](https://www.jpbfoundation.org/), and our expansion partner [NorthLight Foundation](https://www.northlightfoundation.org/), which is funding the stipends for Class 1 to peer-mentor our next round of Environmental Justice grantees. 

Watch the panel discussion to learn more about the impact that investing in rev-gen has in fueling Environmental Justice work:
