Affordable housing and wraparound services are essential to addressing our region’s housing crisis. We recently celebrated the grand opening of Vista de JJ Rodriguez Apartments in Montebello—63 new affordable homes with services from Cesar Chavez Foundation.
The event honored J.J. Rodriguez, a community activist whose life reflected the long fight for housing justice in LA. The evolution of historically marginalized communities must be remembered as we continue working toward housing equity.
These apartments are part of Montebello’s efforts to revitalize historic Whittier Boulevard, transforming a car-heavy corridor into a walkable city center.
Hearing stories from residents and community members, about both the history and the progress made, brought our team hope. Learn more about the project here:
