WE ACT for Environmental Justice

Founded in 1988 as West Harlem Environmental Action Inc., WE ACT for Environmental Justice is a community-based organization fighting to build healthy communities by ensuring that people of color and low-income participate meaningfully in the creation of sound and fair environmental policies and practices. We are still headquartered in Harlem and have grown to become one of the most recognized and respected voices in the environmental justice movement, with more than 1,100 members and serving all of the Northern Manhattan section of New York City – including Harlem, Washington Heights, and Inwood.
