St. Joseph Center will hold an open community meeting in St. Clement’s Hall at Third Street and Marine Street on Tuesday, Nov. 12 at 7 p.m. to discuss its plans to rebuild its facility on Hampton Drive.
The center has been providing human services to the community since 1976, and its programs have helped more than 900 families each year with child care, tutoring, parenting programs, and services for seniors and veterans.
The center provides 11 programs and services on seven sites in West LA, Santa Monica, and Venice, empowering low-income individuals and families toward self-sufficiency.
For more information, call 310-396-6468 ext. 324. In other St. Joseph news, more than 100 business and community leaders gave a birthday toast last week and made their 16th annual contribution to the St. Joseph Center Childcare Scholarship Fund to benefit young children of the homeless and working poor.
Hosted yearly by Joyce Rey, Cecelia & Clifford Waeschle, and Coldwell Banker, this year’s proceeds of more than $32,000 will go toward the care and education of homeless and low-income children in the SJC’s Child Care & Parenting Program.
