The Outreach Program is designed to help hundreds of households with emergency rent, utility, and health assistance, (and more) and provides guidance in assisting families to stability. The program coordinates its services with the homeless shelter, and also many other local services. In addition, La Puente Outreach has a back pack drive for children and puts together the largest community Christmas party in our area, serving over 500 children. Serving at Outreach allows members to acquire many professional trainings and skills that are highly marketable for transitioning into the workforce.
