About Elara
Elara is a 95-unit development located at 4217 E. Live Oak Avenue in unincorporated Los Angeles County. It provides affordable housing for low- and very low-income residents who are financially stable and able to pay rent. Unlike emergency housing, Elara offers long-term solutions for individuals capable of maintaining regular rental payments. Residents will have access to a range of onsite support services, including mental health and addiction counseling, job training, basic legal assistance, and more. The building will also be staffed 24/7 by an onsite manager and security personnel.
