La Puente's Family of Programs

La Puente is our community's response to address the effects of poverty by providing a safety net of services, where individuals and families get what they need to stabilize, heal, strengthen, and ultimately thrive.

Our community depends on your generosity.

With thousands of hours of volunteerism from youth and adults, we provide both hope and services when families need it most.​
