The Environmental Justice Community Alert Matrix (EJCAM) project of the Kingsley Association is geared toward educating and informing vulnerable populations about environmental risks in their communities and to provide them with practical responses to mitigate these risks.
The primary goal for monitoring the air through this Bike Campaign is to test the quality of the outdoor air in the surrounding Larimer Community and to engage community residents in environmental sustainability practices.
Through our work we would like to identify potential source points and hot spots that contribute to resident health, such as Asthma, Allergies, and Cancer.
