Event Details

CHANGE is  participating in and jointly planning a legislative education day with the Central Valley Air Quality Coalition scheduled for Tuesday, August 23rd in Sacramento. If you would like to participate in this event please sign up using this form.

The overarching goals for Action Day are to provide an opportunity for residents and advocates: to meet with their elected representatives in Sacramento, to learn or improve skills on how to effectively advocate for policy changes, and to support policies that provide solutions for clean air. Each year, CVAQC takes 100+ Valley residents and cover all costs for their members. This year marks CVAQC’s 8th annual Action Day and is scheduled for Tuesday, August 23rd.

Californian's for a Healthy and Green Economy (CHANGE)



CHANGE is a growing coalition of environmental health, policy, labor, environmental justice, interfaith, and other organizations who are working to create a better system for regulating toxic chemicals in California.

Community voices, especially low-income and communities of color, are vital to the process of determining how chemicals should be regulated in California.

Workers, low income and communities of color are disproportionately-impacted by the health effects of chemicals in the environment and in products. We recognize that these efforts will only be worthwhile if community voices are at the table helping craft solutions to the problem. We are in the process of bringing more communities of color to participate in the process and invite you to join us.
