People’s Collective for Environmental Justice (PC4EJ) is a community-centered nonprofit organization that advances environmental justice across California’s Inland Empire. Founded in 2020 by organizers and others during the COVID-19 pandemic, PC4EJ was created to confront systemic pollution, environmental racism, and the disproportionate health burdens facing Black, Latino, Indigenous, and immigrant communities, especially those living near freight corridors, warehouses, and industrial hubs in cities like San Bernardino, Bloomington, and Colton. Through grassroots organizing, community education, policy analysis, research, and civic engagement, PC4EJ equips frontline residents with the tools to understand environmental harms and lead meaningful change. Rooted in EJ principles, the collective works toward clean air, safe neighborhoods, and a just transition to healthier, more resilient communities across the Inland Empire and beyond.
