Organization Description

Our Mission is to advance the interests and promote the welfare of the economically disenfranchised and homeless people in Long Beach by offering a welcoming environment to provide respite, nutrition, opportunity, and hope.

Our Vision is to inspire and mobilize our community to gain & utilize resources, both economic and human, to meet the demands of our mission. The Drop In Center is a community based center for homeless people, and those in need in downtown Long Beach. We provide a nutritious meal, a 10 station computer lab and a haven from the streets on Sunday afternoons.
