Community Outreach Events in Honor of United Against Hate Week

In honor of United Against Hate Week (October 18-24, 2026), the Center followed the press conference with two community outreach events for clients and staff: "Kindness Matters": Stand Together & Spread Hope.


Participant activities at the outreach events included:

  • Positive Message Tote Bag Painting
  • Kindness Bead-Making Project
  • Learning about the LA vs Hate initiative and what hate incidents and hate crimes are
  • Learning how to safely report hate incidents
  • Exploring resources that support healing, understanding, and inclusion


LA vs Hate is a Los Angeles County initiative that helps prevent and address hate incidents, supports victims, encourages reporting, and promotes healing and community understanding.

Hate and discrimination can have a profound impact on individuals, families and our community. It’s essential that people know they are not alone and support is available when they experience or witness hate.

LA vs Hate Launches a New Way for LA County Residents to

Report Hate, Bias, and Discrimination

Help make it easier to report hate to LA vs Hate or 211,

get help, and fight for unity and human rights.
