The People Concern

The People Concern Ending homelessness in Los Angeles County through housing, services and advocacy since 1963.

The People Concern believes no one should have to live on the street or in a violent household. Our staff, volunteers and those we serve work together to address the effects of homelessness, poverty, mental and physical illness, abuse and addiction.

Join us as we put boots on the ground and meet our clients where they are. Outreach is crucial to connecting our unhoused neighbors to the services and programs needed to move them from dangerous living conditions to life-saving supportive housing.

Great food brings people together and Taco Bell showed up with plenty of it! 🌮🌮

Taco Bell’s food Innovation Team visited our Annenberg Access Center and created a welcoming space for our neighbors experiencing homelessness to enjoy a meal, connect with others and learn more about the support available to them.

Thank you to the Taco Bell FIT team for helping us provide meals. This is what partnership in action looks like. 💜

Something as simple as a shower can be life changing to people experiencing homelessness. By keeping our public restrooms and showers accessible to those living on Skid Row, we can connect people to life-saving supportive services.

Housing and food are two of our most basic needs, and access to both plays an important role in helping people build stability. But did you know that more than half of people experiencing housing insecurity or homelessness also experience food insecurity?

We're grateful to CCNP and LA City Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez for partnering with The People Concern during their free grocery distribution event. By bringing food and other resources directly to the community, we can connect people with support while meeting an immediate need.
This is what community looks like: organizations, local leaders, and neighbors coming together to make sure people have access to the resources they need.

Thank you, CCNP and Councilmember Hernandez, for your support!

We’re deeply grateful to Orange Barrel Media for generously donating advertising space and helping us share The People Concern’s message with thousands of people across Los Angeles.

Seeing our message displayed at the iconic TCL Chinese Theatres is an exciting opportunity to reach more Angelenos and invite them to join us in building a community where everyone is housed, healthy, and safe.

And this is only the beginning. We look forward to seeing this message appear throughout the city, and inspiring more people to be part of the work to end homelessness.

Thank you to Rocio Castellanos, Lancaster City Councilmember, for taking the time to tour our Kensington Campus, the largest fully integrated community of its kind in the Antelope Valley.

We appreciated the opportunity to share how partnerships across housing, healthcare, and supportive services are creating pathways to stability for our neighbors.

We look forward to working alongside the City of Lancaster, L.A. Care Health Plan, and SALVA to strengthen our community and ensure more people have the opportunity to be housed, healthy, and safe.

California recently saw its first decline in homelessness in years.

While there is still much work ahead, this progress is a reminder that housing and supportive services change lives.

In a recent TIME article, The People Concern CEO John Maceri shared his perspective on the progress being made across California and what it will take to continue moving forward.

Thank you to TIME and Philip Wang for helping shine a light on this important issue.
