Mission

A Place Called Home is a safe haven in South Central Los Angeles where underserved youth are empowered to take ownership of the quality and direction of their lives through programs in education, arts, and well-being; and are inspired to make a meaningful difference in their community and the world.

  • A decline in violent and gang related activities
  • An increase in High School graduates
  • An increase in college entrants and graduates
  • An increase in gainfully employed community members
  • Better awareness of health issues in community
  • A community give-back campaign where community contributes to the success of APCH
  • All programs "certified" as "model or ideal" for after school programming
  • Community activists who fight for their rights in housing, jobs and other issues
  • A community with more technological access, learning ability and success
  • Thousands more children reaching their academic, creative and social potential through APCH programs
