TIM WATKINS
We taught the rest of the nation how to revolt. And now it’s upon us to teach the rest of the nation and the world how to use unity as the glue that holds us together and take the tools of cooperation and build that better future.” – Tim Watkins, WLCAC President, and CEO
The Watts Labor Community Action Committee (WLCAC) has been working with people in Watts to improve the quality of life since 1965. We hold the hands of people in need by providing a place to sleep, food to eat, money to earn and love to grow. Over the last 45 years, we have grown to hold more than 30,000 hands per year through the tireless commitment of dedicated staff and volunteers.

  1. WOW!!! This is the man, Robert Farrell, that was my earliest mentor when I was just a young lad. Bob helped me to see value in my life and in my future. Bob not only talked with me, but modeled success for me; he modeled working hard; and, he modeled compassion. At an early age I looked up to him and thought I wanted to be that sort of man; the way he communicated and cared. These days, whenever I see Bob I remind him of my Love for him. I hope that I turned out the way he made me feel that he expected. Thank you Bob. I Love you.
