What's a Neighborhood Council?
A neighborhood council is an organized group of stakeholders in the
community (residents - both renters and owners, businesspeople, employees,
students and other individuals with direct ties to the area) that serves
as an advisory to the city. As representatives of the community, the
neighborhood council allows both the community and city to be informed of
its issues and needs, and ultimately creates a better sense of community
and improves the quality of life in the area. Neighborhood councils also
can receive up to $50,000 a year from the City of Los Angeles for
community improvements, projects and expenses. The City of Los Angeles has a system
of over 80 certified neighborhood councils.

Outreach
The EHNC strives to outreach to all of its stakeholders, adult, senior or
youth, citizen, legal or undocumented. We all share the same issues and
concerns in our community and the only way to improve the neighborhood is
to do it together! We reach out to neighborhood watches/block clubs,
nonprofits, homes, apartments, schools, houses of
worship, hospitals and businesses alike. In addition, we are present at
prominent events in the community.
