Communities across Los Angeles County continue to feel the effects of the Boyle Heights warehouse fire. For over a week, dense smoke and poor air quality have exposed residents to unsafe levels of particulate pollution, raising ongoing health concerns. We are volunteering in Boyle Heights today.
Los Angeles is home to a significant part of Latino community. In alignment with our commitment to building an inclusive society where all families can thrive, feel safe, and be treated with dignity, we stand with our community during this challenging time.
