Description
Alaska Community Action on Toxics (ACAT) is a statewide, 501(c)(3) environmental health organization founded by Pamela Miller in 1997 in response to requests from those seeking technical assistance because of concerns related to toxic contaminants. We work collaboratively with communities to facilitate environmental justice by holding corporations, the military, and governments accountable for their environmental practices. We help communities put in place effective strategies to limit their exposure to toxic substances and to protect and restore the ecosystems that sustain them and their way of life. ACAT’s mission is to assure justice by advocating for environmental and community health. We believe everyone has the right to clean air, clean water, and toxic-free food.
