THE SEAFLO FOUNDATION

For three decades, Community Coalition (opens in new tab) (CoCo) has been a part of Los Angeles’ political and movement landscape. CoCo was founded intentionally as an African American and Latino organization that is intergenerational in all of its work. The organization has been at the forefront of efforts locally at the school board, city, county, state, and federal level to advance racial and economic justice. CoCo has developed two generations of leaders, that include both youth and adult residents of South Los Angeles. Their members have improved the physical environments of L.A’s highest needs schools, closed the achievement gap, and won numerous measures that are helping to change the material conditions in communities of color in South Central.

For nearly 30 years, Redeemer Community Partnership (opens in new tab) (RCP) has engaged South LA residents and business owners in efforts to enhance public health and safety. These efforts have included planting trees, painting murals, installing LED street lighting, closing four nuisance liquor stores, winning the closure and clean-up of a toxic, neighborhood oil drilling site, and more. RCP’s vision for the future focuses on Renewal, Peace, and Hope: We envision a community where neighbors bring RENEWAL and restoration to broken-down systems. We envision a community where PEACE gains the upper hand. We envision a community where men and women pass on a legacy of HOPE to the next generation.
