Alliance for a Better Community

Alliance for a Better Community (ABC) grew out of the “Tuesday Morning Breakfast Club,” a group of civic leaders who began meeting in the mid-1990s to address challenges facing Latina/o communities in Los Angeles. Today, ABC advances education, health and economic mobility for Latina/o, immigrant, mixed-status and at-risk communities. Using data-driven, community-centered policy solutions, ABC advocates for improved K-12 education, increased college access and equitable healthcare – ensuring that Latina/o communities have the information to make informed decisions about their reproductive rights. ABC’s issue areas are driven by increased civic engagement of Latina/o communities and addressing civic deserts through the target engagement of High Opportunity * voters. ABC uplifts the voices of individuals most impacted by policies and practices that limit their opportunities to thrive. Through our efforts, we create pathways for families to access vital information and connect them to resources, support and opportunities.
