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.
This resource zine is a continuation — primarily made for our immigrant community. 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, this guide is a gentle reminder that our city still cares for you.
This zine 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.
Lastly, this zine 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.
