After the immigration raids began last summer, we surveyed residents and learned that access to mental health and immigration legal services were critical needs. In response, we produced a mental health resource guide and hosted a panel featuring mental health experts. Over 200 people attended in person and online.
The LA Local is proud to present resources that spotlight vital information and services for immigrant communities navigating current challenges. This is continuation of your taking your feedback to heart as we, together, work to create community-centered reporting that uplifts every Angeleno.
Your Rights, Your Community Zine
From the restaurant workers, to the street vendors who feed our cravings or sell bouquets made with love, from the students becoming first-generation graduates, to the business owners who serve our community, our zine is a gentle reminder that our city still cares for you.
This zine, which features know-your-rights information, guidelines to stay prepared, and more, was also made for our neighbors who live in mixed-status households and are doing their best to keep their loved ones safe. This guide is a reminder that we see you.
Ask a Lawyer Video Series
Our Ask a Lawyer video series on Instagram and YouTube brings together an immigration attorney to answer your most pressing questions.
Note: This is for informational purposes only and should not be taken as legal advice.
These resources would not have been possible without you. You let us know your needs, and we responded. Let’s remain in conversation.
Complete the survey and let us know your evolving concerns, needs and what you wish people knew about your neighborhood.
Follow us on Instagram, send tips to tips@thelalocal.org, and give us a call 323-272-4530.
This project was made possible through support from Latino Community Foundation’s Community Protection Fund.
