What Clients Say?
Calvin Harris
Re-Entry Program
“I was released from the Men’s County Jail with nowhere to live and no stable income. I was connected to one of OACH&RC’s care coordinators who was able to get me connected to transitional housing where I was provide a safe place to stay. I was provided with clothing, furniture, and 3 meals per day. I was assisted with getting my social security benefits restarted and they helped me find a 1 bedroom that I could afford. I am so glad that I was referred to OACH&RC by LACADA. Still today OACH&RC continues to be a place where I go to receive services.”
