Improving
Silver Lake for Everyone

The Silver Lake Neighborhood Council works to honor diversity, build community, forge bonds with neighboring communities, and promote participation in city governance and decision-making processes to improve the quality of life for all of Silver Lake’s Stakeholders.

Our collective success relies on your engagement and participation.

What We Do

The SLNC’s main job is to communicate and amplify the needs of Silver Lake to the LA City Council. Composed of a democratically elected, entirely volunteer board, the SLNC is given a budget from the city to allocate towards different needs in Silver Lake.
