Environmental Justice

ACT began organizing on environmental justice in 2017 and exploring environmental racism and injustice in Sacramento.  After much research and learning, the LOC is currently focused on the West Arden Arcade neighborhood which has been identified by the County of Sacramento as an “Environmental Justice Community” or a community facing some of the strongest negative environmental health impacts in the county.  The LOC is working with neighborhood leaders to identify areas of most concern, and to work to address them. In 2019, ACT added a Climate Change LOC.
