Mental health

Expand existing project, program, or initiative (expanding and continuing ongoing, successful work)

As a result of drug abuse throughout the mid 1970's until early 2000's many adults were experimenting with drugs that affected the adults of today. The streets are lined with mental patients that were e release during COVID-19 as well as inmates. The communities of Los Angeles a crowded and they growing rapidly as individual are aging and reproducing more children who have mental illness as well.

Our goals are to assist individuals with mental illness with getting medical assistance, acquiring the personal documents, enrolling them in assistance programs to help manage their mental conditions. Establish housing and financial guidance and support where needed. Rebuild ou communities and open up programs to educate and employ individuals to become independent and reduce homelessness in the county.

We will bring balance and structure to a County that has lost its vibrance. We will improve the educational structure, the employment opportunities will be restored in areas where it has decreased phenomenally. The areas surrounding the airport parameters, the downtown parameters, and the beaches will be impacted initially and within time we will improve the residential areas of Los Angeles City.

This was an existing project. Our organization is looking to be re-established in the Los Angeles County area after being closed down after COVID-19. We were headed in the right direction but the funding phased out for the clients to continue to receive the benefits for assistance and housing coverage. I saw how 98% of our clients were improving and moving into their own residence with a steady income to pay for the rents and responsibilities. They attended their meetings and programs consistently, and are still maintaining a healthy lifestyle after receiving assistance through our program.
