The APADRC family is here to provide emotional support to all sides of the #BlackLivesMatter protests in our Los Angeles community and related areas. This page serves as a hub to share resources, news, announcements, and other information about the ongoing situation. This week we hosted a dialogue for everyone to air their concerns and feelings. Stay tuned for more events like this one in the future by subscribing to our newsletter!

We would like to invite you to join APADRC online Community Dialogues to share your feelings and concerns about on-going conflicts and difficulties with others in a safe place.
KNOW YOUR CURFEWS
There will be no countywide curfew in the @CountyofLA today. I agree with this decision– it gives the peaceful protesters more time to speak out on our streets without fear of arrest.
Keep in mind that cities may impose their own curfews.

I have lifted the curfew in the City of Los Angeles. We remain strongly committed to protecting the right of Angelenos to make their voices heard and ensuring the safety of our community.

Please check your local government office website for curfews in your neighborhood.
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?
- On May 25,2020, George Floyd, a 46-year old African-American male, died during an altercation with police in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
- Since then, there have been multiple instances of both peaceful and violent protests in metropolitan areas across the nation.
- One of the police officers was charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter.
- Numerous cities have imposed curfews.
- The National Guard has been summoned to half the states and even Washington, D.C.
