Title basically says it all.

A few years after college, I moved back to the LA area. I moved in with my family in Whittier (a very quiet place with an interesting history of being both a former Quaker theocracy and Richard Nixon’s hometown). I didn’t grow up here (I grew up north of the city) so I don’t have a lot of immediate friends.

I was wondering if there are any leftist groups in the area? Mutual aid, anarchists, cooperatives, co-ops, etc though I would be very interested in one with a focus on environmental and energy issues?

I know there are a ton in LA, but I am right in between LA and the OC and I don’t want to make the king and sometimes dangerous drive through LA unless absolutely necessary.

Thanks and I hope this isn’t too weird of a question
