LANI Sustainable Organization
In accordance with LANI's program
design, the NoHo Recognized Community Organization
(RCO) created the North Hollywood Community Forum
(NHCF), a 501(c)3 nonprofit. LANI continues to
provide some support services to No Ho, but most
of their activities are independent from LANI.
