Organizations Filed Purposes: OUR MISSION IS TO TRANSFORM INNER-CITY COMMUNITIES BY EMPOWERING PEOPLE FROM WITHIN THE COMMUNITY TO BE THE CHANGE THEY ENVISION.

A BETTER LA (ABLA) SUPPORTS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS WHO WORK TO REDUCE AND PREVENT GANG VIOLENCE, AS WELL AS ORGANIZATIONS THAT OFFER OPPORTUNITIES FOR CITIZENS TO IMPROVE THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC CLIMATE OF INNER CITY LOS ANGELES. SOME ABLA-FUNDED ENTITIES ARE LED BY INDIVIDUALS WHO GREW UP IN OR AROUND GANGS, ENGAGED IN GANG ACTIVITY, AND ULTIMATELY TURNED THEIR LIVES AROUND TO BECOME POSITIVE AGENTS OF CHANGE IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITIES. OTHER ABLA PARTNERS EMPOWER CHILDREN AND INDIVIDUALS TO LEAD MORE FULFILLING AND HOPEFUL LIVES, THROUGH JOB TRAINING AND PLACEMENT, TUTORING, AFTER-SCHOOL ACTIVITIES, SCHOLARSHIPS, AND MENTORSHIP. ABLA SEEKS OUT PARTNERS WHO BELIEVE THAT "SAVING LIVES" INVOLVES NOT ONLY REDUCING VIOLENCE, BUT ALSO CREATING OPPORTUNITIES THAT ENABLE COMMUNITIES TO PROSPER.
