The main cause of homelessness is the inability to afford and access a home. For the past three decades, LAFH has dedicated our services and support to help people secure stable housing. Through real estate development, program staff, and supportive services we help people transition out of homelessness and poverty, and ensure that each individual and every family remain stable and successful in their new home. #endhomelessness #housing #support #services #home #help #family #success #video

About us
Our mission is to help families transition out of homelessness and poverty through a continuum of housing enriched with supportive services. Since 1983, LAFH has grown to become the largest provider of affordable housing in the San Fernando Valley and a best practices provider of basic needs and homeless services throughout Greater Los Angeles. LAFH is a unique housing provider because its services and real estate development address the full continuum of care for homeless and low-income households, from temporary housing to permanent rental housing, all linked to supportive services. In total we own and operate 22 properties, including three shelters and 19 permanent affordable apartment buildings. In 2011, LAFH reached 3,518 children, parents and single adults through its multi-tiered supportive housing system. The agency maintains a 92% success rate in placing families in permanent, independent housing. Each year, our wraparound service and housing continuum helps more than 500 households transition from the streets to housing stability. By balancing housing costs with basic needs, offering supportive services to increase self-sufficiency, and preserving and increasing the stock of affordable housing in LA, our work helps to build neighborhood infrastructure and inject economic growth into low-income communities.

LA's homeless count shows that numbers are down slightly. We know progress is possible because homeless service providers rehoused 27,951 people in a single year - an all-time record for LA County's homeless response system. Greater investment in affordable housing is the key to reducing homelessness! #homelesscount #homelesscount2024 #2024homelesscount #endhomelessness
