FROM THE MAYOR'S OFFICE - L.A. ADU ACCELERATOR

Posted on 06/14/2021

Lifting Up Our Seniors
Few populations were hit harder by the pandemic than L.A.’s seniors, and we took steps from the beginning to make sure our older neighbors received meals, support, health care, housing — and never lost hope.

Now, we will keep following through on our promises to our seniors through the L.A. ADU Accelerator Program, where older adults facing housing insecurity are being paired with existing homeowners willing to rent out their ADUs. Participating in this initiative will deliver critical benefits for homeowners, such as qualified long-term tenants, landlord support, and stable rental payments.

Applications are now open and will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Apply by June 27 for priority reivew. If you have any questions, you can reach out to [email protected].

How Can We Support Our Birds During These Wildfires?

Posted on 09/20/2020

News from California Audubon

Andrea Jones, Director of Bird Conservation at Audubon California
Joanna Wu, Avian Ecologist at National Audubon Society

Smoky days are degrading our air quality and the respiratory health of millions of people. Our hearts go out to those who have been displaced, lost a home, or loved one.

Many of you have asked how this impacts birds. Wildfires are posing a new stressor to birds who are already threatened by habitat loss, climate change, and pollution. Various species are on the move to escape the flames and migrate. However, many wild food sources and rest areas are scorched, leaving birds highly vulnerable. What can we do to help birds? During this crisis, we recommend taking two simple steps to help local and migrating birds stay clean and nourished: providing water and food. (Cont.’d on the TNC’s GREENSPACE resource page HERE)
