As we anticipate the opening of two new permanent supportive housing sites in the Spring, help our new residents feel safe and comfortable in their new home by providing a "Welcome Home Kit" filled with basic home goods, kitchen items, and cleaning supplies. Welcome Home Kits are critical, especially amidst all the uncertainty of the pandemic. These kits not only meet our families’ essential needs, but they can help start their journey of having a new place to call home! Please check out our Welcome Home Wishlist to help support!

PATH COOKS PATH provides meals to our residents in interim housing. When groups sign up to provide meals, it helps PATH focus its resources on providing housing and support services for our residents. Our male veterans in West LA love to have home-cooked meals from volunteers. 
Shifts are currently available at our West LA site. We understand not everyone is comfortable with on-site volunteering. If you want to support our male veterans, ask us about sponsoring a meal through a meal delivery service or catering!
