The primary initiatives CBE has organized are generally to build power for low-income communities of color. The CBE conducts community-led research that extensively documents pollution's environmental and health impacts on low-income communities of color. Notably, they host Toxic Tours that visit sources of industrial pollution linked to many health disparities and ailments. Typically, they feature the personal stories of residents fighting to hold industry polluters and government officials accountable for the toxic exposure within their neighborhoods.
The CBE research team is also essential to the organizations' overall work because their team further examines the environmental and health harms that are often overlooked and the communities that become unaccounted for. Their work highlights the heavy concentration of polluters in the local community, critiques the continued reliance and increasing demand for fossil fuels in our society, and flaws within the government's regulatory systems.
