Mission and Vision
Engaging communities and building vibrant places, one block at a time
Understanding that community members know the needs of their neighborhoods best, LANI empowers local stakeholders to take an active role in planning and building improvements that expand public safety, enhance health and the environment, spur economic development, and foster local pride.
Mission
LANI revitalizes neighborhoods by engaging people and building vibrant public spaces.
Vision
Walkable, green neighborhoods with equitable access to better health, mobility, and opportunity.
Founded in 1994, LANI has helped revitalize more than 50 low and mixed-income neighborhoods throughout the Los Angeles region. We work with communities to plan and implement projects like new parks and open spaces, business corridor improvements, street tree plantings and sidewalk repairs, public art and placemaking, and transportation enhancements like crosswalks, bike lanes, lighting, bus shelters, and transit plazas.
