Community Transformation Collective

Our collective is a place-based, community-building movement made up of over 1,000 community residents and cross-sector organizational partners who work together to affect change in their region. With an initial investment from First 5 LA, this region includes the communities of East Los Angeles, Metro Los Angeles, South El Monte/El Monte, and Southeast Los Angeles. 

The Community Transformation Collective (CTC) is a program within Para Los Niños. The CTC supports community members to transform systemic conditions so that children, families, and neighborhoods can thrive. This systems change approach builds and cultivates transformational partnerships for the region to co-design, implement, communicate, mobilize, and evaluate strategies.
