Formed in 2019, we are neighbors on the westside fighting for real solutions to our housing crisis.
Let’s create a more affordable, sustainable and inclusive community where everyone on the Westside can afford to live, work, grow and contribute.
Mission Statement
Westside For Everyone believes that home is the key to creating a better Los Angeles for everyone. Together we learn, identify transformative solutions, and take action together to make change.
Our Values
We envision a Westside where decisions about housing reflect shared values of our community:
Welcoming. We believe that families, young adults, and seniors all deserve the opportunity to thrive here, and that welcoming immigrants and BIPOC people means creating more homes for them to live in our community.
Resilient. We believe in planning for a climate resilient future, where people can live sustainably.
Quality of Life. We believe that Westsiders deserve quality of life, with walkable communities, access to neighborhood amenities, and where aging in place or raising kids is affordable here.
What We Want
We believe that:
Our community will benefit from homes in all shapes, sizes and price points so that people can afford to create a home and stay here over time.
We need homes that are near public transportation and in walking distance from community amenities like parks, shops, and schools.
We are coming together to ask Los Angeles leaders to plan for a future where all Angelenos can afford a home.
Who We Are
We are a volunteer-driven, grassroots-supported group that was formed by neighbors.
Together, we are students, parents, renters, homeowners, small business owners, nonprofit workers, native Angelenos, immigrants.
Most importantly, we are community members who share a vision for a more affordable and accessible Westside and Los Angeles.
