Infographic Design

These infographic design projects were undertaken for Los Angeles County. These projects aimed to convey vital information and advocate for significant changes in the county. The first project focused on advocating for a livable wage for teachers in LA County, resulting in a successful wage increase agreement with the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). The second project partnered with Immigrants are LA to advocate for a range of crucial services and support for immigrants in the county. Both projects were instrumental in driving positive change and raising awareness of critical issues.

  • The primary goal of the first project was to compile and present data collected from teachers across Los Angeles County, highlighting the need for a livable wage. The key improvements achieved were

    1. Data Visualization: Created clear and compelling infographics to visually represent the collected data, making it easily understandable to a wide audience.

    2. Advocacy Support: Utilized the infographics as powerful advocacy tools, leading to a significant reform in teacher wages. According to the LAUSD, the agreement with UTLA resulted in a 21% wage hike, providing immediate relief to teachers and ensuring incremental increases over several years.

IRLA calls on the LA County Board of Supervisors and the Chief Executive Office to increase infrastructure and provide services to immigrants in the Phase II allocation of $975 Million from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). For an equitable recovery, supervisors must fully include immigrants in the plan to bring our county out of the pandemic.
