Housing

United Way of Greater Los Angeles works to ensure safe, stable and affordable neighborhoods for Angelenos to call home.

Before COVID-19 there were too many people experiencing homelessness in our County. The pandemic strained these systems and added urgency to give people a safe place to shelter.

Our homelessness crisis is not just a housing crisis. It is also a crisis driven by structural racism. We must do our part to elevate understanding around the intersection of over policing, police brutality and the criminalization of black communities and black people, and the role it plays in perpetuating vicious cycles of incarceration, homelessness and poverty.
