EJCW works within\u00a0a Community-to- Capitol framework connecting the most pressing needs of our disadvantaged community partners to our network of partners and agencies statewide. You\u2019ll find us organizing and educating\u00a0on the front lines as well as advocating and counseling\u00a0behind-the-scenes. \u00a0Our aim is to effectively influence the intersections of water justice and environmental justice, community health, and human rights issues from community\u00a0to global levels.<\/p>\n

Our work is rooted in the communities most affected by environmental injustice. Issues and solutions are identified through our regional chapters and statewide work groups. We are positioned \u00a0in the Capitol where we connect communities with state agencies so that we can, as a coalition, bring about change multilaterally through advocacy, education, training, litigation, community organizing, capacity-building, and by providing technical assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=” Campaigns” tab_font_select=”default” tab_font=”||||” tab_line_height=”2em” tab_line_height_tablet=”2em” tab_line_height_phone=”2em” body_font_select=”default” body_font=”||||” body_line_height=”2em” body_line_height_tablet=”2em” body_line_height_phone=”2em”]<\/p>\n Human Right to Water (AB 685), Statewide\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Disadvantaged Community Project Financing, Statewide<\/p>\n Subsistence Fishing and Beneficial Uses Resolution, SWRCB<\/p>\n Local Governance and Water Rights, Weed CA<\/p>\n Climate Change and Water Equity, The Bay Area CA<\/p>\n Crystal Geyser Anti-Bottling Campaign, Mt.
