Community Resources

If you are a concerned neighbor or community member and would like to help connect an unhoused neighbor to resources from the City, County, and professional homeless services agencies, please use (and share) the information below.

Please note that, while SELAH outreaches to and advocates for our neighbors experiencing homelessness, we are volunteers and not social workers, and therefore should not be considered the first point of contact to request outreach or resources for a person in immediate need. We encourage you to directly access the links and numbers below, especially LAHSA's self-service help request portal, LA-HOP.
