East LA
Community Corporation (ELACC) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit

Angeles . Since 1996 ELACC has been dedicated to
harnessing housing and other community development
resources for the benefit of low-income residents of

Community Development through collaboration, community organizing and capacity building.
Housing:

facilities, single family and multi-family housing.
ELACC makes housing affordable to households, whose
income falls between 35% to 50% of the area median
income (AMI) for rental housing units and 50-80% for AMI
for homeownership units.
Economic
Development:
ELACC's Homebuyer,
Financial Literacy and one-on-one counseling programs
provide community residents with bilingual homebuyer and

homeownership. We operate an Individual Development
Account (IDA) with United Way and participating banks.

the health and well-being of residents living in the
