Holiday Venice Tenant Action Committee

The Holiday Venice Tenant Action Committee (HVTAC) is the official tenant association of the Holiday Venice (Breezes del Mar) apartments in Venice, CA. HVTAC is a member of the community organizing group POWER -- People Organized for Westside Renewal, who are members of National People's Action (NPA). HVTAC educates tenants about their rights and responsibilities, and works with the building owners and managers to improve the quality of life for all tenants at the 246-unit Section 8 development. HVTAC also works to preserve and create affordable housing for low-income people throughout Los Angeles, with a special focus on Venice. HVTAC has created over $100 Million of new affordable housing in Venice, and has preserved $100 Million more, through community organizing. We have also worked to improve school food and ensure a quality public education for all students, promote public safety, and encourage civic participation. We plan to train 100 new community leaders in our highly effective model of community organizing and create a team of community leaders that will work with business and government leaders to create a community vision that will keep Venice a racially and economically diverse community that makes it the most unique beach community in the world. Over the next five years, we will identify and win on issues to address homelessness, community safety, the social safety net, affordable housing, and jobs.
