Communities Organizing for Better Water
Background
Communities Organizing for Better Water (COBW) is our campaign that aims to highlight of water inequities in Orange County.
OCEJ conducted door-to-door surveys in the Orange County areas that faced the highest pollution burden, known as DACs (Disadvantaged Communities) in 2016-17.
From the 4,163 survey participants, water quality was the leading environmental concern.
Therefore, UCI Newkirk Fellows, Orange County Coast Keeper, and OCEJ are collaborating together to bring you a community based scientific research model.
