“I think that’s what we want to see here…”

Is Highland Park something that we want to see happen in Lincoln Heights? Fight for your rights and where to start. Vera talks about changes she sees as positive that would help Lincoln Heights, growing up, what it was like in La Cañada and coming back to Lincoln Heights.

Vera Padilla
Long time Resident, Teacher, Lincoln Heights Neighborhood Council Woman
How do businesses change and for who? Starting with kids early on, one city council woman is hoping to change the perception of how Lincoln Heights can sustain business in the future. Vera explains opportunities for community members to get involved from business planing to getting involved with the neighborhood council, with a little history of how previous businesses in the past were not embraced.

How do we educate ourselves about what businesses will benefit a community?
