Our work brings together individuals and institutions - private, public sector and voluntary - to create pathways out of poverty and improve the quality of life for all Angelenos. Through our 10-year plan, we focus on long-term solutions in three interconnected areas:
* Ending homelessness by ensuring access to permanent housing with support services
* Increasing high school graduation by improving academic achievement in middle school
*Â Enabling low-income families to achieve financial stability through job training, placement and asset-building supports
 Ending poverty requires a multi-pronged approach. Through our work, we:
* Provide expert research on our community's most pressing problems;
*Â Convene unique partnerships to develop solutions to the challenges we face;
* Advocate for local, state and federal policy changes to alter the systems that keep people in poverty;
*Â Invest in 130 programs that get results and give people the support and tools they need to lift themselves out of poverty - for good. less
