Our Built
Environment
The focus of the Our Built Environment initiative is to make Cranston into a healthier and safer environment for everyone. We want to make a better Cranston by working to increase resident's pride in their neighborhood through advocating for equitable policies for renters, educational workshops, and community beautification.
What We're Working On
Lead Education & Testing
We have collaborated with the Childhood Lead Action Project to present workshops about lead safety to the community. These workshops were open to residents who were either tenants or landlords/property managers. We also distributed free lead test kits, and continue to give away lead test kits at events we hold.
Our Proud Backbone Agency
Comprehensive Community Action Program (CCAP) is proud to be the backbone agency for the Cranston Health Equity Zone. CCAP is one of Rhode Island’s largest organizations dedicated solely to fighting the war on poverty. We provide a wide spectrum of services and benefits that are designed to help those in immediate need and empower anyone desiring to become more self-sufficient.
