Who We Are
The LA Alliance for Human Rights is a broad coalition of Angelinos who believe that the homelessness crisis in Los Angeles requires urgent and comprehensive solutions. We have heard enough excuses and failures from politicians and government officials, so we sued the City and County of L.A. to demand action.
In 2019, a group of small business owners, residents, and social service providers formed an unincorporated association to pursue a lawsuit to require the City and County to take responsibility for their legal obligations to maintain a safe and healthy environment for all – housed and unhoused. We succeeded in settling our suit with the City and County to provide:
- Shelter and housing
- Reduce the number of encampments
- Return public spaces to their intended uses
- 3,000 treatment beds
- Deadlines and targets to measure progress
As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, we work to hold the City and County accountable to follow through on their commitments to solve the homelessness crisis. Tax-deductible donations are used for raising awareness, mobilizing coalition members, engaging our elected leaders, and serving as a watchdog over the work of the City and County.”
Join us as we seek to help those in need and improve our communities by holding the City and County accountable.
