Funded by the Los Angeles County Department of Children & Family Services (DCFS), the relationship-based community organizing model is an approach to strengthening communities through relationships and collective actions, operating from an asset based perspective of individuals and communities. This empowerment model focuses on creating groups where community members can build relationships around shared values and then design and implement projects, programs and events to improve their lives and the life of the community. Under this model we have 3 Community Groups consisting of 1 adult group in the city of Maywood and 1 teenage group as well as 1 adult group in East Los Angeles.
