We look forward to you joining us for the 2023 Rural LISC Annual Seminar to be hosted by our long-time partner, Coachella Valley Housing Coalition, and to be held in beautiful La Quinta, California - one of nine cities in the Coachella Valley. A rural and semi-urban desert approximately 100 miles east of Los Angeles, the Coachella Valley is famous for its post-modern architecture, international music festivals, and fun Palm Springs vibes. Made famous by iconic old-Hollywood greats such as Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope and Sammy Davis Jr., the Coachella Valley is also a favorite destination for legendries such as President Barack Obama (who visited the area seven times during his presidency), Queen Elizabeth II and Leonardo DiCaprio, to name only a few. Yet what brings Rural LISC to the Coachella Valley is the hard-working people of the eastern Coachella Valley, who toil in the lush agricultural fields harvesting table grapes, dates, bell peppers, citrus and other row crops. We invite you to learn more about this beautiful desert community here. And our extraordinary nonprofit affordable housing partner: Coachella Valley Housing Coalition.
