All Programs

The critical response program includes the following:in March of 2020, our rental assistance program was transitioned into an emergency rental assistance program to support people and households directly impacted by the covid-19 pandemic. We rapidly transitioned the program to a virtual model. The program typically serves about 40 households annually. During the 2020-2021 fiscal year, we served more than 500 households. In the spring of 2021, we launched our micro-pilot guaranteed income program for healthcare workers. The program cohort of 12, along with 18 in the control group were recruited and selected prior to the end of the fiscal year. The first month of fund distribution to participants was July, 2021.

Our enrichment programs described include the scholarship program. The scholarship program assists people struggling financially to return to school and complete their degrees, preparing them to enter or re-enter the workforce. The program was expanded to include one new scholarship in the 2020-2021 year.

Ncjw/LA works toward creating a just society and supports the needs of women, children, and families by training people to become effective advocates. Members and volunteers participate in an annual lobby day on behalf of important bills around issues that range from economic justice, gender-related violence, human trafficking, immigration rights, gun violence prevention, children's rights, and reproductive justice. In 2020-2021, lobby day was again virtual. The ace program raises awareness about the impact of these issues through campaigns, special events, and educational outreach programs.
