DescLa Luz Center is a family resource center that has served Sonoma Valleys most vulnerable families for more than 40 years. It was founded by volunteers who wanted to establish a safe place for new immigrants to receive support. In the early years, La Luz offered emergency support, housing assistance, and referrals for farm workers. Today, the focus is on the promotion of economic self-sufficiency and long-term stability among our community members. The programming centers around three service types: (1) connections and support, helping clients access and navigate resources they need by way of information and referrals; (2) learning, in which the clients gain the skills and knowledge they need to success in life; and (3) engagement by helping individuals and families connect with each other, our community, and local schools through community/arts events, leadership/civic engagement, and school-based services. La Luz is the go to place for local families seeking assistance in managing and improving their lives and, as a result, La Luz is a trusted provider of community based services. La Luz provided nearly 6,000 services to more than 2,000 unique individuals in 2024.Desc
