THE Impact Project

Trade, Health & Environment Impact Project is funded by The California Endowment. THE Impact Project is a community-academic action research partnership focused on reducing international trade's impacts on health and community life. The collaborative consists of four community-based organizations based near the ports or along key trade corridors in southern California and two southern California academic programs. One goal of THE Impact Project is to develop an information network to share knowledge on the health and community impacts of ports and "goods movement," as well as to share strategies for preventing and reducing those impacts.


Trade, Health & Environment Impact Project is a collaboration of the Coalition for a Safe Environment (CFASE), the Center for Community Action and Environmental Justice (CCAEJ), East Yard Communities for Environmental Justice (EYCEJ), the Long Beach Alliance for Children with Asthma (LBACA), the Outreach Program of the Southern California, Environmental Health Sciences Center (USC/UCLA), and the Urban and Environmental Policy Center (UEPI) of Occidental College.
