Physicians for Social Responsibility Los Angeles is a public policy organization based in Los Angeles, California, focusing on environmental justice and nuclear disarmament. For more than four decades, it has mobilized healthcare professionals—doctors, nurses, public health workers, allied health professionals, and students—to support community-led advocacy aimed at fostering healthier, stronger Southern California communities and beyond. The group develops programs that provide these professionals with tools to push for policies addressing environmental and public health concerns, highlighting the role of medical voices in policy discussions. In addition to its long-standing emphasis on environmental health and safety, the organization reported the launch of the Nuclear Weapons Community Cost project in April 2023, signaling a recent initiative aligned with its disarmament and public policy goals.
