Foothill Unity Center is a nonprofit organization based in California that operates as the federally designated Community Action Agency for the Foothill Area. Founded in 1980, the center runs two sites in Monrovia and Pasadena and serves eleven cities in the San Gabriel Valley within Los Angeles County. Its services include food assistance, case management and crisis support, and access to health care resources, with a substantial portion of clients at or below the national poverty line. Growing demand in recent years has increased reliance on local donations and volunteer involvement. In 2025, the organization appointed a new executive director, Jhoana Hirasuna. It has pursued collaborations to expand its impact, such as a 2024 partnership with Comprehensive Community Health Centers to deliver free health and wellness services and a 2025 collaboration with the Beauty Bus Foundation for wildfire relief.
