LSPA Environmental Justice Grants

The LSPA launched our Environmental Justice Grant program in 2023 on our 30th anniversary. After awarding grants to five organizations, we are pleased to continue this program for proposals to support and celebrate environmental and natural resource projects in Environmental Justice Populations in Massachusetts.

The LSPA will distribute a total of $5,000 in 2025 to one or more grantees serving EJ populations in Massachusetts.

Grant applications are due to the LSPA by July 1, 2025 no later than 5:00 pm EST. The LSPA will announce grant awards by August 31, 2025.

More information, details, and grant guidelines are available here.

LSPA Legislation on Home Heating Oil Spills

Over 500,000 Massachusetts homeowners are at risk because insurance does not cover the cost of cleaning up home heating oil spills. The LSPA is working with state legislators to require that insurers automatically provide specialized liquid fuel release coverage to all homeowners.

The LSPA has, once again, filed our bill in the House and Senate (H1302 and S813, respectively). The bill passed the Senate twice, but has not moved beyond the House Committee on Ways and Means. On June 24, 2025, the LSPA testified during the Joint Committee on Financial Services.
