2016 TIPL Strategic Plan

January 14, 2016 by trpadmin

2016 TIPL Strategic PlanPolicy Work

Advance the inclusion of lower income and marginalized communities in climate justice decision-making within the Clean Power Plan and TVA.

Develop with clergy a statewide clergy sign-on letter to advance a climate justice policy.  Obtain the signatures of 50 clergy before mid-year.


Regional Partner and Member Engagement 

Each of TIPL’s regions (Greater East TN, Greater Knoxville, Greater Nashville) will arrange one or more climate vigils and clergy panel seminars.  Knoxville TIPL will partner to weatherize two lower income homes.  We will reach out to other faith communities through their regional faith group associations and will meaningfully engage our existing partners.

National IPL

TIPL will attend the IPL annual meeting and its regular national conference calls and  promote the IPL Preach-in and Cool Congregation programs.  TIPL will network with other state IPLs and regional partners in advancing energy equity through the Clean Power Plan.  TIPL will convene a bi-monthly IPL conference of state IPL leaders that focuses on lower income engagement in their states’ CPP implementation planning process.

Fund Development

TIPL will develop funds to meet its 2016 budget of $6,600.

Administration

The Steering Committee will have monthly conference calls and arrange the Fourth TIPL Annual Meeting in September 2016.  The Steering Committee will hold a one-day leadership development retreat.
