Programs That Change Lives
Six core programs. One mission. Real resources for real people across Los Angeles.
What We Offer
At Gamma & Nana Cares, every program is built around one belief: every person deserves dignity, opportunity, and support. Whether you're a young person looking to build a future, someone navigating homelessness, or a family in need — we have a program for you.
Skills that open doors.
Job Training
Our job training program equips participants with the practical skills, certifications, and professional confidence needed to secure and maintain meaningful employment. We partner with local employers and industry leaders to ensure our curriculum reflects real-world demand.
Who This Is For
Adults and young people seeking employment or career advancement.
A path from the streets to stability.
Homeless Assistance
We connect unhoused individuals with emergency shelter resources, transitional housing referrals, and comprehensive case management. Our team meets people where they are — literally — and walks alongside them on the journey to stable housing.
Who This Is For
Unhoused individuals and those at risk of losing housing in the Los Angeles area.
Healing starts here.
Mental Health Resources
Mental health is health. We provide access to counseling services, crisis intervention, peer support groups, and mental wellness workshops in a safe, judgment-free environment. No one should face their struggles alone.
Who This Is For
Adolescents, adults, and families experiencing mental health challenges.
Essential needs, met with dignity.
Clothing & Food
We distribute clean clothing and nutritious food to individuals and families in need throughout Los Angeles. Our distributions are conducted with respect and care — because how we give matters just as much as what we give.
Who This Is For
Individuals and families experiencing food insecurity or lacking essential clothing.
We come to you.
Community Outreach
Our outreach team goes directly into the community — streets, shelters, parks, and neighborhoods — to connect people with the resources they need. We believe access to help should never depend on someone's ability to seek it out.
Who This Is For
Anyone in the Los Angeles community who needs support but may not know where to turn.
3 credits. Real skills. A brighter future.
