At PCSLA, we are constantly working to identify challenges and gaps in meeting the needs of children and families and building strategies to resolve them. Government funds can only be used for specific purposes. It’s the support from foundations and individuals that enables us to be highly responsive and innovative in our approaches.
The mission of Partners for Children South L.A. is to improve access to high-quality healthcare, early education and family supports for the youngest and most vulnerable children in South Los Angeles.
Working Together for Young Children and Families
Partners for Children South L.A. (PCSLA) is a collaborative effort of 40+ health and human services organizations that partner to provide service linkage and cross-agency care coordination for children age birth to 5 and their families.
