Mission Statement

"Workplace Hollywood is a non-profit organization that assists individuals from historically underrepresented communities in Los Angeles to effectively compete for and gain access to jobs and business opportunities in the entertainment industry."

Workplace Hollywood (WH) is a non-profit, community-based organization formed by the entertainment industry to ensure that individuals from historically under-represented communities in Los Angeles can successfully gain access to opportunities in that industry. 

Entertainment industry and community leaders, who realized that there were large numbers of people in greater Los Angeles who were disconnected from the industry workforce, founded Workplace Hollywood in 1998.  They saw a lack of access to information about career opportunities, trainings and internships.  And, of course, they understood that these people did not have the connections necessary to pursue careers in Los Angeles' signature industry.

The goal of Workplace Hollywood is to provide critical services to individuals who are trying to break into the economic mainstream of Los Angeles' society.
