Mission Statement
The Center breaks the cycle of homelessness through radical hospitality, creating safe and supportive communities.
About This Cause
What we do Our OUTREACH TEAM is comprised of a mental health clinician, a case manager, an outreach strategist, a substance abuse expert, and a nurse practitioner from Saban Community Clinic. The team builds trusting relationships with people living on our streets to help them achieve wellness and housing. On-site, the COMMUNITY WELLNESS TEAM provides mail service to nearly 400 people, sees 80-100 people a day for morning coffee, food, phone-charging, and an overall check-in to assess people's needs. During COVID, wellness groups occur on our open-air patio to build community and end isolation. The RAPID-REHOUSING team helps individuals to quickly exit homelessness and return to permanent housing as quickly as possible. On-going support is offered by helping to furnish new homes and provide constant check-ins as people regain financial and housing stability. FLOURISHING IN HOUSING is a program that helps prevent the return to homelessness and keep people mentally, emotionally, physically well, and stable to maintain their housing. Through an Ambassador and Clubhouse program that helps housed participants stay active, engaged, and learn new transferrable skills, to supporting people with food to address food insecurity, we can only end homelessness if we break the cycle with programs like this. In June of 2020, The Center became a service provider for PROJECT ROOMKEY, a collaborative effort by the State, County, and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) to provide temporary housing to those who are homeless and most at risk of contracting COVID-19. We currently serve nearly 100 people at a 91-room hotel in MacArthur Park.
