Profile:

Los Angeles LISC’s two decades has seen significant changes in the neighborhoods of the city. We have worked with hundreds of community groups and invested hundreds of millions to support affordable housing, retail projects, schools, health care centers, safety programs and other community development needs.

In 2009, we developed a new local strategic plan that will take community development to a new level. Building on our accomplishments in the past two decades, we are embarking on a holistic placed-based approach to community development. Over the next several years, we will target our investment in the following neighborhoods: Crenshaw Corridor, Central Avenue Corridor, and Boyle Heights.

We will focus on developing neighborhood plans, intensify our targeting of resources—financial and staff—to these areas, and develop broader community and funding partnerships.
