About 

Khmer Girls in Action (KGA) is a community-based organization dedicated to building a progressive and sustainable Long Beach community that promotes gender, racial, and economic justice. 

We envision a safe, healthy, and just world where all people are free from oppression and can determine their lives and communities.

Highlights & Community Impact 

Youth Leadership Development

  • What we do: KGA provides culturally informed programming and rapid response resources for youth leaders to navigate systemic barriers to education, economic stability, health, and safety. 
  • How we've succeeded: Through our program and campaigns, KGA has trained over 800 youth to be politically engaged community organizers who dismantle systemic oppressions and advance equity. 

Civic Engagement 

  • What we do: KGA mobilizes a young, progressive, multiracial voting base across LA County, turning out voters in record numbers for every election. We hire alumni, transitional-age youth, and community members as part-time canvassers to engage over 10,000 voters 2-3 times a year. 
  • How we've succeeded: We helped to pass policies that increase safety nets and public dollars. We expanded protections on statewide access to abortions and contraceptives, and we secured the first youth fund, language and living wage ordinance, decriminalized poverty, and much more!
