a peaceful space inc (apsi) is an environmental consulting company promoting healthy environments and quality of life through program and outreach initiatives, data collection and modeling, and program leadership.
Cities are at the frontlines of some of the most pressing challenges of our time: environmental impacts, housing affordability, public health disparities, education and economic equity. For local governments, it means building trust within the communities they serve in order to gather quality data and measurable impacts around quality of life (QOL).
The “apsi Pillars of Focus” illustrated in the diagram below represent QOL issues shared by several local community-based organizations. These issues help establish a baseline for data collection and modeling to enable informed decisions through community co-design, shared strategies, and inclusive policies.
apsi Pillars of Focus
Community Engagement, Equity and Inclusion
At a peaceful space inc (apsi), we continue to work with community organizations tackling environmental equity, resilience, and sustainability issues. By building trust – meeting people where they are, listening to and understanding their issues and working with local community based organizations to move the needle towards an equitable quality of life for all citizens,
Our community engagement data tool is based on collecting lived experience stories around environmental issues like air quality, extreme heat and food access. We collect the stories, categorize them statistically and create a data model that community organizations and local governments can use to co-develop better programs and policies for more equitable quality of life. (For more information, see apsi’s Environmental Holism Program (EHP).
Healthy Environments and Quality of Life
We work across industry sectors in an effort to understand and address interrelated factors and conditions around quality of life and environmental health, indoor and outdoor. Air quality, intense heat, increasing electric bills, access to healthy foods – all impact the resilience and economic strength of our communities.
