Voices of the Comminty - Voces De La Communidad

The Figueroa Corridor Community Land Trust, in conjunction with other local organizations and neighborhood residents, invites to you participate in:

VOICES OF THE COMMUNITY - VOCES DE LA COMUNIDAD

When: Saturday, May 31st from 9:00am to 12:00 noon
Where: Auditorium of St. Vincent's School
(on the west side of Figueroa, halfway between 23rd Street and Adams)

Councilmember Jan Perry, Councilmember Ed Reyes, and staff from the Planning Department will be there to hear presentations from community residents about issues of concern.

Our focus has been on two neighborhoods: Estrella neighborhood (bounded by Washington/Hoover/Adams/Figueroa) and MLK/South Main (bounded by Jefferson/Broadway/Vernon/Avalon).

Over the past six months, we have been gathering information about these neighborhoods (through our March 1st Community Walks, and a Fall 2007 Community Health Survey). We look forward to this opportunity to present these findings to the City, and to dialogue with the Councilmembers and other City staff about solutions.

WE INVITE ALL NEIGHBORS AND OTHER INTERESTED FOLKS TO JOIN US!

Registration at 8:30am. Breakfast, childcare and simultaneous translation (English/Spanish) provided.

To RSVP or for information, contact Blanca Rivera or Tafarai Bayne at 213-784-4140 ext 103 or 102.
