Environmental Justice
Often low income communities and communities of color are disproportionately affected by environmental pollution. This is due to a number of flaws in our zoning codes and government oversight. The MBCC has begun to work with our partners locally and nationally on this issue as we believe it is directly linked to the higher incidence rates of cancer in low income and communities of color. This is a new and developing part of our work.
