The Laotian community in Contra Costa County, CA lives in one of the most toxic regions in the nation. Surrounded by more then 350 industrial sites and toxic hazards, their home, school, and work environments are exposed to dangerous levels of lead, pesticides, and other chemicals on a daily basis.

Through stories with leaders from the Laotian Organizing Project, this tells the story of one way that the Laotian community has come together to transform the community into a place that is safe and healthy to live, work and play.
