The Los Angeles Poverty Department (LAPD), founded in 1985, is a unique organization that combines art and advocacy, primarily focusing on the community living and working in Skid Row. Through performances, visual arts, and public discussions, LAPD addresses social issues, including healthcare crises, and promotes creativity among local artists.

LAPD hosts various events, such as their annual arts festival, Walk the Talk, and free movie nights at the Skid Row History Museum, fostering community engagement and dialogue. Their workshops and initiatives, like the Community Grief Circle and Documentary Photography Working Group, aim to provide support and resources for individuals navigating challenging circumstances in their lives.
