As eco‐social work practice and scholarship continues to grow, multiple frameworks are emerging to help guide the work. In this study, we interviewed 59 people affected by environmental injustice. Participants identified components within both environmental injustice and sustainability, as well as gaps that these models individually do not support. Therefore, we suggest that merging environmental justice with sustainability through centering justice (a component within environmental justice), and also finding solutions through technological advances (a component within sustainability), may best support these communities. In addition, the participants discussed the need for support, which social workers can provide.

对边缘化社区的环境不公正和可持续性的理解：内华达州的质性研究

随着生态社会工作实践和奖学金的不断增长，出现了多个框架来指导工作。在这项研究中，我们采访了59位受环境不公正影响的人。参与者确定了环境不公正和可持续性的组成部分，以及这些模型各自不支持的差距。因此，我们建议通过以中心正义（环境正义中的一个组成部分）将环境正义与可持续性相结合，并通过技术进步（可持续性中的组成部分）寻找解决方案，可能会最好地为这些社区提供支持。此外，参与者讨论了社会工作者可以提供的支持需求。
