Formed in 1903 to address the epidemic of tuberculosis and other lung-related diseases, the organization’s education and outreach efforts have resulted in significant reductions in incidences of TB and more stringent smoking laws.

Exciting news from Sun Valley! 🌞 On Tuesday, Breathe Southern California hosted our first Advisory Committee meeting in Sun Valley, bringing together passionate residents to discuss living conditions and pressing air quality concerns in the community.

Through the Sun Valley Air Quality Improvement Initiative, we’re teaming up with local residents to develop a Local Community Emissions Reduction Program (L-CERP) – a plan designed for Sun Valley, by Sun Valley, to create real, lasting improvements.

We’re just getting started, and your voice matters! Follow our journey and check the project’s progress at www.breathesocal.org.

On Saturday, September 26th, 2026, Breathe Southern California and Elementary partnered for phase 2 of the school community garden build.

75 volunteers attended from different organizations as well as from the local community and school. 17 planters were built for 17 classrooms who will be using this space to learn about local food, drought tolerant native plants and air quality.

The local walgreens also came out to support with flu shots. Thank you to all who participated and to all who donated and supported this project! Phase 3 will be coming next year! Stay tuned.

Before September ends, we’re taking a moment to recognize Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month.

Pulmonary fibrosis causes scarring in the lungs, which can make it harder to breathe over time. Signs may include shortness of breath, a chronic dry cough, fatigue, unexplained weight loss, and clubbing of the fingers.

If you or someone you love has ongoing breathing symptoms, don’t ignore them. Talk with a healthcare provider and learn the signs.

Know the signs. Share this post. Help raise awareness.
