In this meeting, our guest speaker was Nancy Berlin.

She is the Policy Director for the California Association of Nonprofits, the former director of the California Partnership and a project coordinator of the Los Angeles Coalition to End Hunger & Homelessness. Nancy is the Loan Coach for the ASECO Community Revolving Loan Fund and brings decades of non profit management experience in the form of wise counsel and problem-solving in all of our efforts. Nancy is a well known to the California nonprofit and advocacy community and has been recognized with numerous awards including Outstanding Public Citizen of the Year Award from the California Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers and the Community Building and Justice Award from Alexandria House. She is co-editor of How to Get Food and Money: The People's Guide to Welfare and Other Services.

At Democracy at Work - Los Angeles (d@w-Los Angeles), we endeavor to further our parent organization’s purpose, that is, raising awareness and generating a positive cultural shift towards Worker Self-Directed Enterprises. WSDEs are a way to reorganize our workplaces in a truly democratic fashion, where decision-making power and wealth are shared equally. Through promotion, education, and connection with local organizations, we aim to be a hub in Los Angeles that advocates for and facilitates the transformation of our economic system.
