The Issue

Being a caregiver in Los Angeles has shown me the true depths of resilience—constantly showing up, despite being exhausted and feeling like I'm carrying more than anyone realizes. Every day, I face the heartache of missing having my mom at home. The challenge? Finding a safe, truly accessible place where I can bring her back home. It's overwhelming, and I'm at a loss for where to turn next.

Los Angeles is a vibrant city, yet the lack of affordable and disabled-accessible housing speaks volumes about the overlooked needs of families like mine. So many caregivers are navigating this complex journey, and we're desperate for legitimate resources and support. We're looking for housing organizations that understand our situation, for programs that offer real solutions, and for any organization willing to help families find a place that works for everyone.

This isn't just my story. It's the reality for countless families across Los Angeles who are struggling to bring their loved ones to a more comfortable and accessible environment. The city's response has been inadequate, and the need for accessible housing is urgent. By increasing the availability of such housing, we can turn the tide and start seeing real change in our communities.

It's time for Los Angeles to recognize this urgent need and take concrete steps to expand access to affordable, disabled-accessible housing. Let's push for more programs and partnerships that can bridge this gap for families. Please join me in demanding action and advocating for change. Sign this petition to help create a community where every family can thrive.
