About Neighborhood Councils

Neighborhood Councils are a hyperlocal form of government that work to ensure the City of Los Angeles is responsive to the needs, challenges, and aspirations of YOUR neighborhood.

The Neighborhood Council system was designed with representation at its center. Unlike many other elected positions, the Neighborhood Council system is open to those who are system impacted, non-US citizens, unhoused neighbors, and young people in the community.

Neighborhood Council Board Members are volunteers. As a Neighborhood Council Board Member, you will have the opportunity to advocate for issues that matter most to you and your neighbors, advise your City Councilmember and other City leaders, and contribute to positive change in your community.
