We are excited to announce that we are teaming up with the UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center to bring together a lively and energizing convening of community leaders and stakeholders for State of the Eastside on Thursday, June 26th, at 10 am.

Featuring a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Veronica Terriquez, Director of the UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center, our panelists will address critical issues facing the Eastside of Los Angeles and how we can rise to meet this moment. Collectively, we will chart a path forward in defense of our neighborhoods and our democracy.
