[/ultimate_heading]About Together for LA:
Founded in 2020, Together for LA is a strategic partnership that advances a more equitable, sustainable, and resilient economic recovery to disasters, focused on small businesses. Together for LA founding partners include Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC), The Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, Local Initiatives Support Corporation Los Angeles (LISC LA), The Dr. Lucy Jones Center for Science and Society, The Institute for Sustainable Development (ISD), the Economic Workforce Development Department, City of Los Angeles and Los Angeles County. This partnership was made possible through a generous grant by Wells Fargo’s Open for Business Fund.
Los Angeles County is home to more than 1.3 million small businesses, including more women and BIPOC owned small businesses than any other county in the nation. These employer and non-employer establishments provide the majority of jobs and income for the ten million residents of America’s most populous and diverse county and tens of thousands of these enterprises remain at significant risk.
