Camino a la Posada

Posada is Spanish for shelter. Traditionally, the posadas represent the difficult search for housing by Mary & Joseph before the birth of Jesus.

Since 2007, Company of Angels has assisted in the social celebration and presentation of community members’ struggle for quality, affordable housing. Camino a la Posada is a celebration of the journeys residents undertake to bring programs and services to our community. These resources help support our efforts to create healthy and happy households in hard economic times.

In these tough times when there’s plenty of money for prisons, more troops, new wars, and big screen TVs, low- income communities struggle with the difficult consequences of injustices. Children and youth are especially affected. “La Fregada” can refer to the current economy, oppressed peoples, and the undocumented woman working in the garment industry in Los Angeles. This is a story told by the children of “La Fregada.”
