Working With Communities

South Coast AQMD has launched a new volunteer program, Working with Communities, in support of agency’s commitment to reliable and clean energy that will reduce costs, improve air quality, and make a difference in environmental justice communities.


South Coast AQMD has launched an employee volunteer service program, Working with Communities, in support of the agency’s commitment to support reliable, clean home energy and sustainable materials that will reduce costs, improve air quality and make a difference in environmental justice communities. 

This new partnership between South Coast AQMD and Habitat for Humanity International brings together our employees and community partners on volunteer service projects throughout the year. The projects include the installation of climate-resilient and energy-efficient home improvements and in some cases, new construction in Southern California communities.

South Coast AQMD has a long history of strengthening and building relationships with our communities to promote clean air. In recent years, South Coast AQMD has demonstrated the agency’s commitment to service through events such as the annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service and Cesar Chavez Day of Remembrance.
