WE ARE HERE FOR YOU
The Y provides immediate services and support for families and community members impacted by the LA wildfires.
We Are Here to Help
Our reach in the city allowed for a swift response, and our longevity and infrastructure give us the unique position to support long-term restoration and rebuilding. We have resources catered for those who have lost a home or may be experiencing long-term trauma.
If your primary residence was destroyed or rendered uninhabitable, you will be asked to verify with official documentation (FEMA, insurance, or local authority verification)
- A Well-Being Coordinator will be assigned to check in regularly and help coordinate care, track progress, and plan long-term recovery
- The household will receive free membership with full access to all LA Y centers and programs at no cost for the remainder of 2025
- Free childcare will be available
- Children will receive priority placement in youth programs
- Children can attend both day camp and one week of summer sleepaway camp for free
- The individual or family will have access to free mental health services, distribution services, support networks, wraparound services, and referral support
Significant impact means your child’s school was closed or displaced, an adult in your household has lost a job or income, you have experienced evacuation-related disruption, or you are experiencing long-term trauma
