Coalition for Economic Survival is a small, community-based organization based in Los Angeles, California. Founded in 1973, it mobilizes low- and moderate-income residents across the greater Los Angeles area to pursue economic and social justice. The group advocates for tenants' rights, supporting those living in private and HUD-subsidized housing to maintain safe, affordable homes and resist displacement. Within the civic and social organizations sector, CES concentrates on protecting rent control, addressing substandard housing conditions, eradicating housing hazards, stopping unjust evictions, and shielding neighborhoods from gentrification while preserving access to government-assisted low-cost housing. In March 2026, CES partnered with the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project to develop an Ellis Act database, reflecting a concrete collaboration with another organization.
