Subject: Inquiry: Support for Advocacy on Second-Generation Harm from TCDD (Agent Orange) Exposure

Dear Environmental Justice Foundation Team,

My name is Danni, and I am writing to ask whether the Environmental Justice Foundation offers support, partnerships, or project collaboration opportunities for advocacy related to environmental toxins and intergenerational human rights violations.

I am leading a campaign in Australia to raise awareness and seek recognition for second-generation harm caused by exposure to TCDD (dioxin), the active toxin in Agent Orange. My parent served in the Vietnam War, and I live with 17 health conditions that international research has linked to inherited TCDD exposure.

Despite mounting global evidence, there remains a complete lack of recognition or support in Australia for children of veterans affected by this toxic legacy. I am compiling medical records, international studies, and legal evidence to pursue justice through submissions to UN bodies and potential legal mechanisms, while also building a public-facing resource and advocacy platform.

Given EJF’s strong commitment to environmental and human rights justice, I would be grateful to learn if there are any current grant programs, partnerships, or pathways for collaboration that might align with this work.

Thank you very much for your time and for the powerful work you do in defending environmental and human rights globally.

Warm Agent Orange Burns regards,

Danielle Stevens

We will always be a child of a Vietnam Veteran.
