MISSION - WHAT WE DO

Los Angeles has one of the highest populations of disenfranchised and displaced individuals in the nation. Leading this population are adult males, whose roles as fathers, husbands, sons and brothers have been replaced with "ex-felon", "addict", "homeless" and "mentally challenged". Along with these roles are the stigma that prevents our community from helping these men restore their lives. We believe these men are the most in need, yet are the most underserved. By providing them with a stable, nurturing and structured housing environment we can begin the healing process to help them restore their lives and resume their respective roles in society. With a mindset of "offering a hand up...not a handout...", we are committed to helping men build sustainable lives for themselves and their families.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

Our commitment to help those underserved in our community is shown by the successful outcomes of the many and varying populations we serve. These men, whose needs although varied, move on to become gainfully employed, overcome addictions, reunite with families, manage their mental illness, secure permanent housing and become productive members of society. We believe that it is through the act of being of service that we can foster an atmosphere of change and tolerance to remove the stigma that accompanies homelessness, incarceration, mental illness and substance abuse disorders

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Supportive services are critical to ensuring that the men we serve are not only able to move into permanent housing, but are able to maintain longevity in their homes. Working within the model of "client centered", our counseling and case management focuses on helping those struggling with the challenges and daily pressures of life while providing them with tools to overcome obstacles that may impede their success.
