Since opening our doors in 2010 Home Again L.A. has helped over 2,000 individuals mobilize from living on the streets or in their cars into permanent housing. We are just getting started!
To assist families experiencing homelessness in gaining independence by transitioning into permanent housing and employment, with the support of our community.
Since opening our doors in 2010 we have operated a 90-day shelter for homeless families with children. The program works in partnership with local congregations as we focus on temporary shelter, meals, case management and housing.
The Rapid Rehousing program helps transition homeless families with children into permanent housing. Families are provided up to 12 months of rental subsidies. Then, our trained Case Managers work alongside families to set benchmarks that focus on stability.
In partnership with local government agencies Home Again L.A. provides case management and rental assistances to families at-risk of homelessness.
In 2018 Home Again L.A. partnered with City of Burbank and Burbank Housing Corporation to open a transitional housing program, Jerry's Promise, to provide short term housing for homeless families.
As part of our 2020 merger with fellow nonprofit homeless provider, Glendale Communitas Initiative, Home Again L.A. offers community workshops focused on job development, financial planning, and life skills.
We assist homeless families with children return to permanent housing…this includes helping them find employment, increase annual housing income and attain housing.
Our 90-day Shelter allows families up to 90 days of support. All other programs allow households to be supported for up to 12 months.
Home Again L.A. offers an array of programs and each program has it's own capacity. In regards to our 90-day shelter, we serve four families at any given time. All other programs range from 15-40 families.
