In 1914, the Los Angeles Branch of the NAACP was formed in the home of Drs. John and Vada Somerville, both graduates of the University of Southern California School of Dentistry, and active leaders in the affairs of the black community. Currently, the branch continues to support the programs and policies of the NAACP with aggressive action at the local level. In addition to ongoing initiatives in the areas of civil rights and social and economic development, local priorities revolve around the theme of education.
The Los Angeles NAACP Branch, along with the California State Branches and the Region 1 Branches, bring you greetings and welcome to our home for the 2011 NAACP National Convention.![]()
