Program Description

Establishing neighborhood community centers in the County of Los Angeles began in 1901 with the creation of Brownson House in East Los Angeles. There are numerous centers dispersed through the regions and located in areas of greatest need. Their location and contact information are listed below.

The type of assistance depends on their needs and includes: food; clothing; temporary shelter; utilities assistance; transportation; public benefits assistance; job training; employment referrals; medical referrals; and special holiday activities. The goal is to empower people to become more self-sufficient and independent.
