Mission Statement

The mission of Kids Progress, Inc. is to empower children living in the public housing developments of the city of Los Angeles to build a viable, stable future and become self-sufficient, independent adults by offering social, health, educational and cultural opportunities through partnerships and collaborations.

Description

Thousands children have come to live in public housing; some have continued to live in public housing as adults and are raising another generation and sometimes two generations in the place they called home as children.
