Organization
Las Vegas Dancers Alliance was established as a non-profit corporation in Nevada in the summer of 2002. Its purpose was to advocate on behalf of adult entertainment workers and meditate issues between its members and management. By October, club representatives had been elected from twelve of the twenty-one gentleman's clubs in the region and served as its Board of Directors. To lobby candidates and local officials, a political action committee was established (LVDA-PAC). A third organization was created in 2003 (The Committee to Protect Dancing). That organization educated its members on the initiative process and coordinated a signature drive to overturn the so-called Lap Dance Ordinance.
