Out of great interest and growing concern with the direction our valley is heading in the near future and the
great desire on behalf of Santa Claritans to get involved in the community and political process, it was increasingly apparent
that we needed an organization that could help our neighbors get involved.
WethepeopleSCV will be dedicated to service, educating,
advocating, and influencing the vital decisions being made by our elected officials that will determine our future, neighborhood
preservation, and quality of life.
Educating: We will work to compile all the relevant information on issues in a clear and precise way enabling
you to grasp the issues in a comprehensive form. Through commentary, video, blogging, linking various citizen organizations
and fire side chats with local, county and state leaders we will better inform ourselves with knowledge thus creating influence.
Advocating: We will look directly at
the issues that will negatively impact our valley (Las Lomas, Newhall ranch etc.) and take a pro Santa Clarita, pro neighborhood
approach and work to uphold those values.
Influencing: Instead of major power brokers and business carpetbaggers descending on Santa
Clarita making the rules regarding our quality of life, we will stand before City Council, LA City Council, and LA Board of
Supervisors to make the citizens voice heard.
Service: Through service to others we find the true spirit of who we are and what makes a
community. We will look for opportunities throughout the valley where we can join together and give service to others as a
way of contributing our strength and spirit to a cause in need. Most of all - Have fun.
This endeavor will not be easy and will take some time. However, we believe it will give an outlet for others to
join together and learn, advocate, influence and serve others in a positive way.
