At Friends Helping Friends they believe that the only way to truly break the cycle of homelessness is to give people hope of a better tomorrow. While their service falls under the title of 'transitional housing,' they are much more than that. They not only provide the basic human necessities to survive, but also the love, support and resources necessary to move toward safe and permanent housing. Friends Helping Friends LA takes a unique approach to addressing the plight of homelessness by providing a home-like environment to those who would otherwise be homeless. They are significantly different from a homeless shelter because rather than having a warehouse full of cots, they house clients in single family homes with all the amenities that typically come with living in a housecomfortable furnishings, the ability to cook/prepare your own food, the comfort and security of personal, private space and most importantly a family environment. While shelters provide a much needed service, they are only temporary fixes to a much broader problem. Hours: Monday - Friday 9 am - 5 pm


Mission Statement: Our mission is to assist individuals and families in need of hope and healing by providing a range of services, including, but not limited to direct financial assistance to those facing unexpected and necessary expenses they cannot afford and encouragement through artistic vocal performance. Our vision is to provide support, offer positive opportunities and improve everyday living for those we reach through financial assistance, artistic edification and personal encouragement.
