Inner City Law Center Nominated as DE&I Nonprofit Organization of the Year

Los Angeles, CA (March 21st, 2024) – Inner City Law Center is honored to be nominated as DE&I Nonprofit Organization of the Year at the Los Angeles Business Journal’s 2024 Annual DE&I Awards!

Inner City Law Center is well aware of the deep-rooted and pervasive challenges systemic racism presents for people seeking equitable housing, and strongly feels that lip service to diversity and equity is not enough. The journey to more equitable housing must be purposeful and intentional, which is why Inner City Law Center places a strong focus on prioritizing delivering services to those most likely to become homeless.

Last year, 85% of Inner City Law Center’s clients were People of Color, including 30% who were Black Angelenos. This year, Inner City Law Center is working even harder to ensure we center the needs of our most marginalized and underserved clients.
