Mayor Eric Garcetti speaks at the press conference to launch LA:Rise, an employment program for the re-entry population, homeless, and youth. LA:RISE is funded by the U.S. Department of Labor. Friends Outside in Los Angeles County is a funded partner on this six-million dollar program through which staff will provide supportive services to the re-entry population from its co-location at the Vernon-Central/LATTC WorkSource Center located at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College.
