HomeAid LA and Lennar Homes Create More Beds for Domestic Violence Victims
On one single day here in the state of California over 19,000 people called local and state crisis-hotlines seeking shelter, safety, and support.
Providing housing to victims and their children is critical – it helps save lives by offering a lifeline to safety. This is why WSLB is so thankful to have the support of both HomeAid LA and Lennar Homes.
Their generosity created an additional 12 beds at our Emergency Shelter. This addition expanded our housing capacity and we will now be able to shelter upwards of 140 more victims each year.
WSLB’s Summer 40 Hour Domestic Violence Training is now open for registration!
