CEI - Community Worker - (Fresno, CA)

The Community Equity Initiative (CEI) is an interdisciplinary effort designed to address and eliminate social, political and environmental factors that negatively impact Disadvantaged Unincorporated Communities (DUCs). The CEI was established to focus CRLA resources towards changing this pattern of historic inequality. We work alongside community leaders to raise awareness of DUCs, increase investment in community infrastructure, improve access to essential services, advocate for equitable development, promote environmental justice, guarantee fair representation, and build leadership capacity in DUCs so that residents can engage meaningfully in decision-making processes that impact their neighborhoods and their families.
