LSS Community Care, a Pasadena, California–based nonprofit in the field of Individual and Family Services, has a long-standing commitment to assisting the poor, under-served, and powerless. Since 1946, it has collaborated with a network that includes churches, businesses, civic leaders, and government agencies to address poverty at the family level. The organization focuses on three core activities: offering short-term emergency assistance to those in crisis, providing program resources to help individuals and families progress toward stability, and empowering people to break the cycle of poverty and achieve self-sufficiency. A key strategic emphasis is on long-term, sustainable initiatives like Circles, which aim to mobilize entire communities to own solutions to poverty. The organization operates within the broader social services landscape in Southern California and serves communities seeking practical, community-based approaches to economic hardship.
