We provide case management and other services that promote stability and self-sufficiency. We work with households living in units owned by individual landlords and we act as the Lead Service Provider at various affordable housing developments around LA County. Some programs target specific populations, including high utilizers of LA County public health facilities as well as people dealing with mental health and substance use issues.
