About the event

On Saturday, October 24, 2015 more than 5,000 folks of all ages will gather for a morning-long festival celebrating the worth of every Angeleno and the work of Homeboy Industries.

WHO:

Homeboy Industries is the largest gang intervention, rehab, and reentry program in the United States, serving more than 10,000 men and women each year.

For more than 25 years, Homeboy Industries has helped formerly gang-involved and previously incarcerated men and women re-identify who they are and redirect their lives to become contributing members of the community. 

With an array of free programs and services like tattoo removal, academic and life skills classes, substance abuse and other support groups, job training, work readiness and employment placement services, Homeboy Industries is the single place that engages the imagination of this marginalized population.

When you support the Every Angeleno Counts 5K and Festival, you help to underwrite these vital programs and create healthier families and a safer Los Angeles.
