PCAT worked with Port staff to write and pass the first environmental justice policy at any port, Resolution 3767, the Duwamish Valley Community Benefits Commitment (CBC). It has three goals that shape our work:
Goal 1: Build Capacity in Community and at the Port for Collaboration
PCAT regularly meets with Port leadership and elected officials to voice community issues and find solutions related to impacts from Port operations.
Goal 2: Support a Healthy Environment and Community
PCAT advocacy funds local youth training in green job sectors - ranging from habitat restoration, solar energy, and green stormwater infrastructure careers.
Goal 3: Promote Economic Prosperity in Place
PCAT encouraged the Port to open the Duwamish River Community Hub, a place-based economic development center located in the heart of the South Park business district.
