$50,000 initiative targeted at women and youth is a collaboration with the Latina Golfers Association

Downey, CA — This Saturday, LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn will hold a free golf clinic to mark the launch of Tee It Up, her Golf Initiative for Southeast LA. Hahn will present a $50,000 check to the Latina Golfers Association (LGA), which will run the series of workshops and clinics for youth, women, and seniors at parks across Southeast Los Angeles.

“With this initiative we’re breaking down barriers that women and girls–and especially women and girls of color–face in the world of golf. I’m proud to partner with the Latina Golfers Association to bring these opportunities for fun and learning to our Southeast LA communities,” said Hahn.

The Latina Golfers Association was founded in 2008 with the goal of “empowering girls and women using golf as the vehicle to break gender and cultural barriers in the business world.” Through their participation in LGA programs, participants are able to take part in business and corporate golf outings and networking opportunities.

Media should RSVP to Liz Odendahl, lodendahl@bos.lacounty.gov.

North Long Beach Supervisor at your Supermarket follows successful Downey event in January

Long Beach, CA – This Saturday morning, LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn will bring her Supervisor at your Supermarket series to North Long Beach. Hahn be available at Superior Grocers on Cherry Avenue along with her staff for residents to ask questions or discuss.

“I know that it’s not always convenient to walk into an office or even to make the time to call when you have an issue. But residents have concerns, issues, and questions, and they need to be heard. So I want to bring their county government right to them,” said Hahn, who held similar Congress on your Corner events during her time in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Hahn’s Supervisor at your Supermarket in Downey attracted dozens of residents and local leaders despite the rain.

Hahn will be accompanied by members of her staff who are responsible for the various policy areas that County departments manage. Among the concerns expressed by residents during the Supervisor at your Supermarket event in Downey last month were homelessness, arts & culture, and economic development.

Media should RSVP to Liz Odendahl, lodendahl@bos.lacounty.gov.
