The Center’s mission is now, and has always been, to end isolation and homelessness by facilitating robust social and health supports for the unhoused population. Emerging research now proves what we have known for years: that there is an undeniable link between social connection and physical and mental health.
To counteract the social isolation and declining health for people living on the streets, The Center is seeking funds to scale up our Day Center and Wellness programming, which provides vital social infrastructure for the unhoused.

Housed, Healthy & Whole
The Center is a nonprofit agency that ends isolation and homelessness through radical hospitality. It’s an inclusive space for anyone experiencing homelessness to feel welcome, feel safe, and receive services. We connect people to community, healthcare, and housing. We are seeking funding to expand our on-site Community Wellness Clinic, because low-barrier housing and healthcare services are the first line of defense against generational poverty and homelessness in Los Angeles.

Flourishing in Housing, Thriving on the Street
The Center believes that the biggest barrier to housing for individuals experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles today is the isolation that comes from living on the streets. Utilizing a cutting edge engagement model that prioritizes building genuine relationships over transactional interactions, staff are able to garner the trust of service-resistant folks and connect them to mental health treatment, physical health care, and ultimately to sustainable housing interventions.
