Restoring LA Through Accountability & Action
Los Angeles is in crisis, and the City and County are failing to deliver the urgent solutions needed to end homelessness. The LA Alliance for Human Rights is the only force holding our leaders accountable through bold advocacy, legal action, and community mobilization. Since our founding in 2019, we’ve exposed government failures and forced action with our landmark lawsuit, but our fight isn’t over. Join us in demanding accountability and systemic change to restore LA to a place of safety, dignity, and opportunity for all.
Download Our City Performance Report
Between the City and County, Los Angeles spends about $4 billion per year on homelessness. Angelenos have voluntarily taxed themselves through Measures H, HHH, and ULA to fund homelessness prevention and intervention.
Dozens of City and County departments, hundreds of nonprofit organizations, thousands of employees, and billions of dollars are committed to alleviating homelessness. The ultimate question is: Are these efforts cost-effective? Do they fulfill the promises made to solve homelessness? Is the juice worth the squeeze? The short answer is No. Despite these efforts, homelessness in Los Angeles has steadily increased every year for at least a decade.
"Is the Juice Worth the Squeeze?" reviews the performance and management of homelessness assistance programs to demonstrate that the system created to solve homelessness in Los Angeles is failing.
We Sued for Justice–and We Won!
In March 2020, we took a stand. Frustrated with the lack of action from City and County officials, we filed a groundbreaking lawsuit that compelled local authorities to meet their legal obligations. Our efforts have resulted in:
The Creation of Thousands of New Beds for the Homeless
This initiative aims to provide immediate housing solutions for individuals experiencing homelessness, ensuring that more people have a safe place to sleep and access essential resources. By increasing the availability of shelter options, we are making significant strides toward reducing the number of people living on the streets.
Access to Critical Mental Health and Treatment Services
This includes the creation of dedicated treatment beds and support programs tailored to help individuals facing mental health challenges and addiction. By providing these vital services, we aim to empower individuals to regain stability and improve their overall well-being.
A Commitment to Return Our Public Spaces to Their Intended Uses
Clearing of encampments addresses public health and safety concerns and restores our public community spaces for the enjoyment of all. Safer, cleaner streets allows local businesses to thrive and communities to be restored.

Mission: Transforming Los Angeles Through Accountability and Action
At The LA Alliance for Human Rights, our mission is bold yet clear: to end the homeless crisis in Los Angeles through courageous advocacy, relentless government accountability, and empowered community action.
Through our landmark lawsuit, we’ve already achieved significant victories—forcing action and uncovering millions in lost and mismanaged government funding meant for addressing homelessness. But our work is far from over.
We’re driving change by holding local officials accountable to real, measurable benchmarks, including expanding shelter availability, providing critical mental health services, and clearing encampments with dignity. Our ongoing public audit of all LA government homeless funding since 2020—overseen by Judge David O. Carter—ensures that tax dollars are spent effectively to support our unhoused neighbors. The audit’s findings, set to be released in early 2025, will bring unprecedented transparency and drive meaningful reform.
Together, we can demand a city that prioritizes safety, dignity, and opportunity for everyone. Join us in creating lasting solutions to homelessness and restoring Los Angeles to its full potential.
