We are survivors of the January 2025 fires that destroyed nearly 70% of Pacific Palisades. Comprised of residents, local leaders, and community organizations, our mission is to foresee obstacles and create lasting solutions on the road to recovery and rebuilding in Pacific Palisades and other LA fire-affected communities.

Our History

In the aftermath of the Palisades Fire a group of community members came together to form what we have come to call the PALISADES RECOVERY COALITION. What began as local gatherings evolved into a brain trust of thoughtful Palisadians who consistently met to share ideas and collaborate on ways to anticipate and solve the challenges ahead.

What started as conversations around a table quickly evolved into a dynamic collaboration, driven by a simple idea: foresee the obstacles ahead and create solutions before they become roadblocks. Guided by resilience, innovation, and a deep love for our community, we are working every day to ensure the Palisades not only recovers—but thrives.

Since our first in-person meeting on February 11, with more than 100 community members–representing Palisadian organizations, neighborhoods, and businesses—the PALISADES RECOVERY COALITION has come together to create a draft logistics plan for the systemic rebuilding of an entire community.
