Coalition of Communities of Color

Formed in 2001, the Coalition of Communities of Color (CCC) is an alliance of culturally-specific and multi-cultural community based organizations with representation from the following communities: African, African American, Asian, Latino, Native American, Pacific Islander, and Slavic communities.

The mission of the Coalition of Communities of Color is to address the socioeconomic disparities, institutional racism, and inequity of services experienced by our families, children and communities; and to organize our communities for collective action resulting in social change to obtain self-determination, wellness, justice and prosperity.

The CCC advances racial equity in community and economic development, education, health and human services, and housing through policy analysis and advocacy, culturally-appropriate data and research, equity-based funding, leadership development, and partnership and coalition building.
