Los Angeles Poverty Department was founded in 1985 by director-performer-activist John Malpede. LAPD was the first performance group in the nation made up principally of homeless people, and the first arts program of any kind for homeless people in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Poverty Department received general operating support for its arts and cultural programs that serve the Skid Row community.
