Honoring Dignity, Demanding Systemic Reform
Every year, LEA brings together members of the San Diego community, civic officials, service providers, and unhoused neighbors to highlight real lived experience. We host panels, interactive walkthroughs, policy roundtables, and memorial vigils for those lost to the streets.
