environmental justice

The People’s Port Authority is a community-led environmental justice organization fighting for accountability at the Port of Providence.

Since 2015, The People’s Port Authority has educated South Providence and Washington Park communities about toxic facilities threatening our neighborhoods, mobilized to stop their expansion, demanded accountability from port operators and public officials, and supported each other in the face of systemic injustice.

The Port of Providence was built through extraction, colonialism, and slavery—a legacy that continues today as toxic industries concentrate pollution at our doorstep. We are an intergenerational, multi-racial collective standing together to confront this injustice.

02905 is the most toxic zip code in Rhode Island.

Join us to fight back.
