Elsa Barboza, organizer for SCOPE and Los Angeles Apollo Alliance is helping lead Los Angeles 2009 programs to retrofit Los Angeles municipal buildings to LEED EB Silver levels. That means green remodeling. The "Green Building Retrofit Ordinance" means training and jobs for green building retrofits.

The Green building retrofit policy being considered by the Los Angeles City Council includes votech worker training that will be provided by the local community colleges and the City of Los Angeles.

Green For All and their alliances have produced a number of useful resources to help people understand and apply the federal recovery and stimulus funding. These resources include a User's Guide to the Recovery Package and a Green Recovery For All Action Toolkit.
