Arnali Ray brings over 14 years of experience in non-profit social services and healthcare, and a passion for helping marginalized communities. Her career and volunteer service have focused on helping the most vulnerable populations access basic needs and vital services.

Previously as the Chief of Strategy and Programs Officer at Saban Community Clinic (SCC), Arnali led the organization’s cross-cutting initiatives, strategic plan implementation, and advocacy efforts. During her tenure at SCC, Arnali was committed to finding solutions to help individuals experiencing homelessness and she was able to dramatically expand services in collaboration with key partners. These services include the addition of field-based street medicine providers, opening a satellite clinic at the Center in Hollywood, and launching a mobile van clinic that provides medical and dental services to temporary and long term housing sites in L.A. County. Arnali believes that building relationships and collaboration are critical to the work and lead to impactful programs.

As an advocate and leader in the community, Arnali served as a board member on the Mid-City West Neighborhood Council and the chair of the Homelessness, Refugees, and Renters’ Rights Committee. She was actively involved in the Midtown Los Angeles Homeless Coalition and helped organize volunteers to conduct the count when L.A. County canceled the 2021 annual homeless count due to the pandemic. Arnali is a founding board member of Hollywood 4WRD, a coalition driven to create systemic change to effectively address homelessness in Hollywood through advocacy, education, service coordination, and innovation.
