LA LUZ CENTER IS A FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER THAT HAS SERVED SONOMA VALLEY'S MOST VULNERABLE FAMILIES FOR MORE THAN 38 YEARS. IT WAS FOUNDED BY VOLUNTEERS WHO WANTED TO ESTABLISH A SAFE PLACE FOR NEW IMMIGRANTS TO RECEIVE SUPPORT. IN THE EARLY YEARS, LA LUZ OFFERED EMERGENCY SUPPORT, HOUSING ASSISTANCE, AND REFERRALS FOR FARM WORKERS. TODAY, THE FOCUS IS ON THE PROMOTION OF ECONOMIC SELF-SUFFICIENCY AND LONG-TERM STABILITY AMONG OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS. THE PROGRAMMING CENTERS AROUND THREE SERVICE TYPES: (1)CONNECTIONS AND SUPPORT, HELPING CLIENTS ACCESS AND NAVIGATE RESOURCES THEY NEED BY WAY OF INFORMATION AND REFERRALS; (2)LEARNING, IN WHICH THE CLIENTS (SEE SCHEDULE 0) GAIN THE SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN LIFE; AND (3)ENGAGEMENT BY HELPING INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES CONNECT WITH EACH OTHER, OUR COMMUNITY, AND LOCAL SCHOOLS THROUGH COMMUNITY/ARTS EVENTS, LEADERSHIP/CIVIC ENGAGEMENT, AND SCHOOL-BASED SERVICES. LA LUZ SERVES 90% OF SONOMA VALLEY'S LATIO POPULATION, MAKING IT THE "GO TO" PLACE FOR LOCAL FAMILIES SEEKING ASSISTANCE IN MANAGING AND IMPROVING THEIR LIVES AND, AS A RESULT, LA LUZ IS A TRUSTED PROVIDER OF COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES.
