Zocalo Housing Crisis in Los Angeles

Join us for our Zócalo to discuss the Housing Crisis in Los Angeles County and its impact on the Latino/a community. As rents soar and affordable options dwindle, many families face displacement, while the unhoused community struggles to access resources. Expert speakers will explore systemic challenges, offer potential solutions, and advocate for equitable housing policies.

ABC’s Zócalo takes inspiration from the Zócalo in Mexico City, known as the main ceremonial center in the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan. It has been a gathering place for the community since the era of the Aztec empire, having been the site of ceremonies, the swearing-in of elected leaders, royal proclamations, and independence celebrations, among others. In this same spirit, ABC’s Zócalo series will serve as a place to gather, celebrate, learn, experience art and culture, and create spaces for meaningful discussions on key issues.
