About Homeward LA:
Homeward LA is an annual citywide event focused on inspiring the community to take action to end the homeless crisis facing Los Angeles. Each year, writers work with people who have been homeless to develop stories based on their real-life experiences. Then, over a 10-day period, multiple productions of actors will perform these stories in venues all around Los Angeles, bringing the community’s attention to the homeless crisis and raising funds for a nonprofit organization fighting this issue. By giving those who are homeless a voice to share stories, Homeward LA seeks to remind the community that those who struggle to find their way home are more than just their homelessness.
About The Midnight Mission:
The Midnight Mission is the oldest continuously operating human service organization in the Los Angeles region. Founded in 1914 and centered in the Skid Row area of downtown Los Angeles, The Midnight Mission runs one of the most efficient direct service operations in the country. With only four executive managers throughout its 100-year history, The Midnight Mission has been a consistent beacon of light for those with nowhere else to turn.
Its mission is to offer a bridge to self-sufficiency for people experiencing homelessness through recovery services, counseling, education, training, workforce development and continued care services. To make available the necessities of life to people experiencing homelessness: food, shelter, clothing, personal hygiene needs, and medical care.
