Our Approach
At LA Más, we are dedicated to fostering neighborhood stability and economic resilience by building collective power and ownership for working-class communities in Northeast LA.
Our vision is a regenerative NELA—one that reimagines and transforms our relationship to land, labor, and care to create a more equitable and sustainable future.

Somos NELA
Mercado NELA Comparte is now a weekly NELA Night Market.
Starting February 7th, Mercado NELA Comparte will evolve into the NELA Night Market, happening every Thursday from 5-8 PM until summer, thanks to United Way’s Community Prosperity Fund.
Our goal? To generate $3K in vendor sales each week while fostering connections and sharing resources through partner activities and tabling. To achieve this, we need our allies to show up weekly and continue investing in our local vendors.
