Mission & Vision

We organize to build a safer, healthier and thriving Eastside for all.

MISSION

Our mission is to build a powerful and an influential movement of youth and families on the Eastside of Los Angeles to promote healthy, safe and nonviolent communities. The Eastside is comprised of the communities of Boyle Heights, unincorporated East Los Angeles, El Sereno and Lincoln Heights.

OUR APPROACH

PEOPLE POWER

We believe Eastside residents should be at the forefront of change. You’ll work alongside your classmates, fellow parents, and neighbors to build a progressive, social movement.

TRAINING

You’re already the expert of your experience living in the Eastside. We provide you with the tools and skills to identify solutions and win them.

DIRECT ACTION CAMPAIGNS

The time to act is now. We take on campaigns to change public policy and reallocate resources to improve the quality of life for you and your family.

UNITED WE STAND

We believe it takes more than one organization to transform our communities. We’re proud to work alongside organizations and participate in alliance and coalition building to contribute to the formation of our generation’s social justice movement. Learn more about our partners.
