The Magnolia Community Initiative will host a Sense LA Creative Assembly during two consecutive days in January (January 22 and January 23 from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.) as part of a wider attempt to create recommendations that will help inform the Master Plan of Los Angeles. The Magnolia Community Initiative, which serves the Pico Union, Koreatown and Westlake Hispanic populations, is dedicated to creating sustainable change for families by promoting and strengthening individual, family and neighborhood protective factors through increasing social connectedness, community mobilization and access to needed services.
We are excited to work with the Magnolia Community Initiative on this assembly and hope you can join us!

Sense LA Community Plan:
Sense LA, together with the Korean-American Federation of Los Angeles (KAFLA), have convened all members of the Greater Wilshire area, organizations, clubs, associations and general residents to participate in a series of creative assemblies intended to bring people together to discuss, identify and create more nuanced comprehension of the issues that affect themselves, each other and their communities. Through our efforts, we anticipate the creation of a greater Wilshire recommendation document for the City of LA’s master plan. KAFLA has joined forces with the Berggruen Institute to use a leading-edge collaboration and creativity methodology developed at MIT to enable groups of people to understand problems of mutual interest and to connect to create a holistic vision for every subsection of greater Wilshire. This method of cooperation represents a marked shift in the way community input is gathered. It is also an unprecedented way of creating a deeper understanding of the individual members of various communities and how they feel about their environment.
