United Way of Greater Los Angeles

United Way of Greater Los Angeles is a nonprofit that works with partners to address poverty, homelessness, housing instability, economic hardship, and education inequity across Greater Los Angeles. Its work includes policy initiatives, coalitions, and community programs designed to help people facing hardship and strengthen long-term opportunity.

Through partnerships and the Home for Good Funders Collaborative, United Way supports coordinated efforts that connect people and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness with housing navigation, public benefits, health care, employment resources, and other community supports. Its housing and homelessness resource directory also points readers toward shelters, prevention programs, food assistance, transportation, utility support, and other local resources.
