Confront polluters, seed solutions.
At Community Action Works, we believe that environmental threats are big, but the power of well-organized community groups is better.
We’re here to help.
There’s no shortage of environmental problems. That’s why we offer training and other resources to help people confront local environmental threats and the polluters behind them. We can help you get started, get organized and get resources. We’ll even work side by side with you.
You are not alone. You can stop and prevent pollution in your community. We’re here to offer you the support you need.

“Community Action Works is the best of allies when a grassroots community group like NCABC challenges a wealthy corporation’s development plan that jeopardizes the environment and public health. We’ve collaborated through nearly five years of trainings and brainstorming, get-out-the-vote projects, phone banks, rallies and educational initiatives for the public and decision makers. Most recently, CAW provided grant support for the experts who give us a powerful voice in regulatory decisions and also funded a mail campaign to engage our regional community. CAW’s staff is unfailingly ready, experienced and enthusiastic —100% on our team, no matter the project.”
