LASA is a community supported agency committed to the prevention of homelessness.

In 1989, Rev. Luther Kriefall brought in people from 16 houses of worship. They all shared a common interest in both their neighbors and social justice. Together, they created a program that addressed the immediate issues causing homelessness, LASA was shaped by the increased need for homelessness prevention.

Families and individuals often come to us with nothing more than the clothes on their back. While each situation is different, one common theme resonates, they have all suffered a severe loss. Your in-kind or monetary donations make it possible to provide the basic needs to our families and community.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
