For more than 25 years, we have worked side-by-side with our neighbors to advocate for tenant rights, healthy housing, and equitable development.

We believe the fate of Los Angeles’ neighborhoods should be decided by those who dwell there, and that all people have a right to the city. We help community members organize and advocate for themselves, their families, and their communities for safe and healthy housing.

Together, we are building a movement for change that addresses the root causes of structural oppression and the creation of a more just economy for all.

Our Mission

SAJE builds community power and leadership for economic justice.

Our Vision

We are driven by a vision of a society where justice and equity are the foundation of community development, where communities are stable, and where workers and tenants have the same rights, stature, and decision-making power as corporations and property owners.
