What’s New
11 years ago, the Chevron refinery exploded. It wasn’t a surprise.
When I was in first grade, I remember some lucky students getting handpicked by teachers for a field trip. The prize: a visit to the Chevron refinery, planned just for them.
Why I’m proud to support APEN’s community visioning
I was incredibly impressed when earlier this year, APEN staff let us know their summer plans. Instead of getting caught up in the never-ending cycle of urgency, they wanted to listen and co-create with APEN’s membership through a series of community visioning workshops to plan for the next 15 years of APEN’s grassroots organizing.
None of it would be possible without you! #APENLAunch
Thank you to the allies, friends, family, donors, vendors, APEN Oakland and Richmond members, and our very own APEN staff. Each and every one of you made launching our Los Angeles organizing project memorable and powerful.
