About this organization
Mission
United Way of Greater Los Angeles (UWGLA) is a leader in the movement to end poverty in Los Angeles County. Our work brings together individuals and institutions - private, public sector and voluntary - to create pathways out of poverty and improve the quality of life for all Angelenos. Through our 10-year plan, we focus on long-term solutions in three interconnected areas: * ending homelessness by ensuring access to permanent housing with support services * increasing high school graduation by improving academic achievement in middle school * enabling low-income families to achieve financial stability through job training, placement and asset-building supports Ending poverty requires a multi-pronged approach. Through our work, we: * provide expert research on our community's most pressing problems; * convene unique partnerships to develop solutions to the challenges we face; * advocate for local, state and federal policy changes to alter the systems that keep people in poverty; * invest in 130 programs that get results and give people the support and tools they need to lift themselves out of poverty - for good.
