From helping establish a regional agency dedicated to affordable housing and tenant protections to advocating for housing justice policies, we’ve done a lot these past few years! But we know that building a LA County that's accountable to its communities will take much more work.

But at the same time, we're also very concerned that projects like @VCHC Venice Dell Community apartments are being actively sabotaged by the LA City Attorney and @TraciParkforLA (latimes.com/opinion/story/20…)

We're happy that ED1 removes barriers to help expedite new affordable housing production and we support @MayorOfLA efforts to dust off City Hall.

It’s time to invest in our neighborhoods that have historically been divested from and disinvested in.
Let’s start by providing the most vulnerable and low-income communities in LA County with the resources they need: permanently affordable housing.

⚠SB 4 is a critical measure to address our homeless crisis by unlocking over 171,000 acres of land for affordable housing. We urge @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom to sign the bill and help us address California's housing needs!

🚨 This is not a drill 🚨
After a frustrating Spring and Summer fighting legal battles brought on by tax-evading billionaires, we are so excited that the first of many programs funded by the mansion tax will come into effect—starting today.

"This is ridiculous. Venice Dell has been years in development. The project has been approved twice by the L.A. City Council."
Editorial: When will L.A leaders stop getting in the way of a Venice homeless housing project? (via @latimesopinion) latimes.com/opinion/story/20…
ALT VENICE, CA - JANUARY 4, 2023 - - A homeless man salvages items left from an abandoned encampment on Hampton Ave. in Venice on January 4, 2023. Many of the homeless, who once lived in the encampments, were given housing at the LA Inn and Suites as part of the Inside Safe initiative. Over a dozen other homeless were taken from the area and given housing at the same hotel. Mayor Karen Bass and Councilwoman Traci Park announced that the Mayor's new Inside Safe initiative was underway in Venice. Outreach has begun to people living in encampments surrounding the A Bridge Home site at the intersection of Sunset Avenue and Pacific Avenue, and people who had accepted housing were taken by bus to a hotel in Los Angeles. Inside Safe is a new, citywide, proactive housing-led strategy to bring people inside from tents and encampments for good, and to prevent encampments from returning.
