Mental Health Leader for Groundbreaking FRIENDS Volunteer Program
Food on Foot works to alleviate homelessness in Los Angeles by fulfilling two crucial needs: our weekly Sunday Serving event provides our hungry and unhoused neighbors with healthy meals and supplies, while our Jobs & Housing Program assists people in securing jobs, permanent housing, and independence. We seek to scale our services through an innovative and successful new volunteer initiative called FRIENDS. To meet the need we are requesting the necessary funds to hire a Mental Health Leader to provide guidance, leadership, and direct service.
