Para Los Niños
- Share via
Founded on Skid Row in 1980, Para Los Niños (PLN) partners with more than 10,000 children, youth and families each year through integrated education, wellness supports and advocacy, addressing individual and systemic barriers to create pathways to success. In addition to operating early education centers, charter elementary and middle schools, youth workforce development sites and family services, PLN is the only children’s mental health provider in the Skid Row neighborhood.
PLN’s community transformation work also brings together community members, community-based organizations, city and county agencies, elected officials and businesses to tackle issues that impact PLN families. Ninety-three percent of families served by PLN live in areas with the highest levels of food insecurity and homelessness in L.A. County.
