Organization Overview

The Coalition for Clean Air was founded in 1971, at a time when clean air in California seemed almost unimaginable. Since then, we’ve come far and won many significant victories. From spearheading California’s original Smog Check program in 1981 – which continues to reduce 100 tons of automobile pollution every day – to helping pass California’s landmark global warming legislation, we have helped position California as a world leader in strategies to reduce air pollution.

The Policy Associate reports to and works directly with the Deputy Policy Director and is based in downtown Los Angeles. The position is part-time with the possibility of growing into a full-time position depending on funding. The ideal candidate must be able to work 20 hours a week including weekends and evenings when needed.
