ABOUT Home Again LA

Home Again L.A. (HALA) is a 501(c)3 non-profit homeless service agency with offices in Burbank, Glendale and San Fernando. The organization was created as a way to respond to the fastest growing segment of the homeless population, unhoused families with children. Opening our doors in July 2010, HALA focused on providing shelter in partnership with local congregations who provided overnight accommodations. Since then, we expanded to five core programs: Shelter, Homeless Prevention, Rapid Rehousing, Outreach and Transitional Housing. In 2017 the organization began to expand its services with partnerships with the cities of Glendale and Burbank to implement rapid rehousing programs. Then in 2019, in partnership with the Burbank Housing Corporation and City of Burbank we opened a Transitional Housing program called Jerry's Promise, targeting chronic unhoused families with children. Next, in 2020 we merged with fellow non-profit, Glendale Communitas, to facilitate outreach which included community workshops. In 2023, HALA served 699 households through the various programs we offer.

OUR FIVE CORE PROGRAMS

Shelter

Rapid Rehousing

Outreach

Our first core program is our 90-day shelter for unhoused families with children. The program works in partnership with local congregations as we focus on temporary shelter, meals, case management and housing.

The Rapid Rehousing program helps transition unhoused families with children into permanent housing. Families are provided up to 6 months of rental subsidies. Then, our trained Case Managers work alongside families to set benchmarks that focus on housing and financial stability.

Home Again L.A. offers outreach services through community workshops focused on job development, financial planning, and life skills. We also host community fairs and in 2024 established a Mobile Resource Center focused on bringing resources to low income communities.

Transitional Housing

Homeless Prevention

In 2018 Home Again L.A. partnered with City of Burbank and Burbank Housing Corporation to open a transitional housing program, Jerry's Promise, to provide short term housing for chronic unhoused families.

In partnership with local government agencies and private foundations, Home Again L.A. provides rental assistance and case management to families
at-risk of homelessness.
