Mission Statement

 
The Environmental Justice Resource Center (EJRC) seeks to assist, support, train and educate people of color, professionals and grassroots community leaders with the goal of facilitating their inclusion into the mainstream of environmental decision- making.

  • Geographic focus: national
  • No membership

    • Children's Environmental Health Activities

    		 
    Atlanta ZAP Asthma Project: The EJRC works with a consortium of health, housing and community agencies (e.g. Emory University, Fulton County Health Department, American Lung Association, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) to address childhood asthma in the Atlanta Empowerment Zone and Linking Communities. Community health workers are trained to play an integral role in designing an intervention program to address the childhood asthma problem in the Enterprise Zone neighborhoods.
