Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Our mission is to work in partnership with stakeholders to expand access to recreational green space, hiking and equestrian trails, native habitat, and riparian wetlands in Long Beach and the surrounding cities.

  • Community Education and Outreach: Our environmental justice efforts focus on key issues affecting western Long Beach. One major concern is disproportionate pollution, with the area known as the Diesel Death Corridor due to heavy emissions from freeways, the Port of Long Beach, and refineries. This results in higher rates of respiratory illnesses and a reduced life expectancy, which can be 5-10 years shorter than in more affluent areas. Another critical issue is park inequity; western Long Beach has less than one acre of parkland per 1,000 residents, significantly below the 16.7 acres available in eastern Long Beach. The lack of green space impacts physical health, mental well-being, and overall community health. Addressing these disparities is essential for promoting environmental justice, improving public health, and ensuring equitable access to green spaces for all residents

    Expenses $46,090

  • Land Preservation: The coalitions most prominent work is to stop the industrial development of one of the last remaining large parcels of open land along the Los Angeles River. We advocate for this land to be developed as a public park, citing decades of city and county plans that had previously designated the site for open space. We view the proposed industrial development as a direct violation of environmental justice principles and a step backward for the communitys health and vitality. Our advocacy includes legal action, organizing community protests, and petitioning city officials to honor their previous commitments to greening the river corridor.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
