Shelter Partnership Inc.

Since its founding in 1985, Shelter Partnership has been a leader in the fight to end homelessness in Los Angeles County. Dedicated to increasing the housing opportunities and resources available to homeless families and individuals as well as to those who are in extreme poverty, Shelter Partnership accomplishes its mission through the following activities:

• providing technical assistance to community-based organizations and public agencies (helping these agencies to be awarded more than $1 billion in federal funds in the past 18 years);
• conducting research and publishing analytical studies to inform public policy;
• promoting community education; and
• operating the S. Mark Taper Foundation Shelter Resource Bank, soliciting large-scale donations of merchandise and ensuring that these items are delivered to the people and agencies who need them.
