Public Education Grants
Los Angeles ACORN, a member of the national organizing network, was established in 1995 and today comprises 3,000 dues paying members in South Los Angeles. Since 2003, ACORN leaders and staff have been developing a relationship with the United Teachers of Los Angeles, working together to pass legislation mandating stricter regulation of factories and other polluters located near schools. In 2006 LA ACORN began its campaign for the establishment of a Peer Mentor Program for new teachers and has recently launched a campaign for a teacher retention program within Jefferson/Santee area schools. Hazen’s core grants of $35,000 in 2008 and 2009 will enable them to expand their campaigns and to build the capacity of parent leadership to improve the quality of education in their community’s schools.
