Then
becoming a Member of the Board at RVNC is one of the best ways to do
it. With 1 currently open seat, now is your best opportunity to join
us in working towards making Rampart Village the jewel of LA.
In
order to this, we are looking for a hard working dedicated individual
to
join the board, or if that is not your cup of tea, you can make a
difference by joining one of our many committees and/or working groups
or maybe become a liaison. No matter the depths of your civic passion,
you have a home at the Rampart Village Neighborhood Council!
Not
sure what a Neighborhood Council does? Well here it is in a
nutshell.
Many
Los Angelenos are looking for ways to make a difference in their
communities on the issues they care about most: crime, roads and
streets, gangs, the economy, land uses, and more. Neighborhood Council
participants are empowered to advocate directly for real change in
their communities. These Councils consist of residents, business
owners, and property owners.
Local
engagement is important because no one understands a neighborhood
better than the people who live, work and play there. Neighborhood
Councils are answering that need and strengthening democracy in Los
Angeles by embracing and supporting the diversity of neighborhoods that
comprise the City of Los Angeles.
Working
together, Neighborhood Councils have generated success stories across
the City - from community health clinics in Pico Union, to a greening
strategy for Downtown, to addressing traffic and transportation issues
in West LA and beyond.
So
as you can see, the potential to enact change in our neighborhood is
only limited by how big you can dream and how much effort you are
willing to commit!
To
be considered, all you have to do is fill it out and email it to our
Secretary at here and attend our
board meeting on the 20th of
February for board review and vote. Or you can also
bring it to the board meeting!
What
are you waiting for? Community engagement is only a click away!
