Dear Friend,

It's time to become a member of the Los Angeles Metropolitan Alliance! Serving two geographical regions in Los Angeles, there is a Metro Alliance organization near you working towards empowering our communities and improving the conditions throughout Los Angeles.

Over the past 6 years the Metropolitan Alliance has been an integral part of the Silverlake, Hollywood, Echo Park community, creating a better Los Angeles for poor and working class families and communities of color. SHEPMA has fought for and won campaigns to reinvest in our youth’s future, ensure rights for welfare recipients, and create job-training programs linked to good jobs. Our most recent victory in our Jobs & Health Care Campaign was winning $1 Million dollars for an innovative job-training program in the Health Care industry. Presently, the Metropolitan Alliance has been part of a coalition to keep Daniel Freeman Memorial Hospital in Inglewood open, protecting good jobs and healthcare for our community.


The West Los Angeles Metropolitan Alliance has been working diligently towards improving conditions on the Westside and empowering its residents to take a more active role in their communities since 1997. WLAMA has fought for and won campaigns to reinvest in our youth’s future, ensure rights for welfare recipients, and create job-training programs linked to good jobs. Our most recent victory in our Jobs & Health Care Campaign was winning $1 Million dollars for an innovative job-training program in the Health Care industry. Presently, the Metropolitan Alliance has been part of a coalition to keep Daniel Freeman Hospital in Marina del Rey open, protecting good jobs and healthcare for our community.

None of these victories could have happened without you! SHEPMA and WLAMA members are the backbone of this community, people who share a vision for social and economic justice for everyone. (Our members have created a model for the city of Los Angeles, crossing ethnic and class lines to work together.) They’ve built this organization from the ground up, earning both SHEPMA and WLAMA respect from our community.

We’re writing to ask that you join the Metropolitan Alliance so that we can continue building a powerful grassroots organization.

Sincerely,

The Los Angeles Metropolitan Alliance Leadership Teams:
SHEPMA Leadership Team
WLAMA Leadership Team
