StriveTogether is a national movement with a clear purpose: helping every child succeed in school and in life from cradle to career, regardless of race, ethnicity, zip code or circumstance. We refuse to settle for a world where a child’s potential is dictated by the conditions into which they are born, so we work together to break down barriers, change systems, and improve lives. In partnership with nearly 70 communities across the country, we provide coaching, resources and rigorous approaches to create opportunities and close gaps in education, housing and so much more. We use data to illuminate problems and solutions, tackle tough conversations and deliver impactful results for 13 million children and counting.

Why Work For Us?: 

Our core values

  • Community: We focus on what connects us and communicate to each other with transparency and integrity.
  • Courage: We fail forward even if no one is watching, have the tough conversations no one likes having and take risks in pursuit of results.
  • Equity: We seek and value all types of diversity, put equity into action daily and strive to dismantle inequities, including those present in ourselves, our organization and our communities.
  • Progress: We share learning in real time, view professional development as personal growth and fix problems through collaborative improvement.
  • Results: We use data and evidence to make decisions and hold each other accountable for getting results.

THE LA LAW LIBRARY IS:

  • A curator and cultivator of a superior collection of one million volume equivalents. This collection includes Federal and State materials, a comprehensive California collection and one of the nation's largest foreign and international law collections.

With a newly renovated Main Library in Downtown Los Angeles, located steps from the Stanley Mosk Courthouse, self-service digital research stations recently introduced in the Norwalk and Pomona county courthouses, and expanding relationships with legal aid foundations, pro bono organizations, bar associations and public libraries, LA Law Library is becoming a robust community education center for the residents of Los Angeles County, the state of California and the world.
