The term "Palm Springs" refers to several organizations focused on community, culture, preservation, and development in the Palm Springs, California area, rather than a single entity. Key organizations include: 1. **Organized Neighborhoods of Palm Springs (ONE-PS)** is a coalition of representatives from 52 recognized neighborhood organizations. It serves as a platform for community dialogue, advocacy, and collaboration with city government to improve residents' quality of life. ONE-PS meets monthly to discuss neighborhood issues, promote communication, and foster community leadership[1]. 2. **Palm Springs Preservation Foundation (PSPF)** is a nonprofit dedicated to preserving mid-century modern architecture and cultural resources in Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley. Founded in 1997, the foundation focuses on advocacy, education, and publications to raise awareness about historic preservation. In 2023, PSPF received a California Governor’s Historic Preservation Award, highlighting its significant impact[2][7]. 3. **The Greater Palm Springs Foundation for Leadership & Advancement**, established in 2018, invests in the local hospitality workforce by promoting education, professional growth, and leadership development within the tourism industry. The foundation partners with local educational institutions and industry leaders to strengthen workforce pipelines and support career advancement in hospitality[6]. 4. **Palm Springs Agency of the Bureau of Indian Affairs** administers programs for the Agua Caliente Tribe, focusing on real estate, natural resources, self-determination, and tribal operations. It oversees Indian land leases in the Palm Springs area, managing thousands of residential and commercial leases on the Agua Caliente Indian Reservation[5]. These organizations reflect Palm Springs' multifaceted identity: a community committed to civic engagement, historic preservation, workforce development in tourism, and indigenous governance. Together, they contribute to the city's cultural vitality, economic growth, and quality of life.
