Serving more than 16,000 people each year—including youth, veterans, seniors, and families—LAFH provides outreach, interim and permanent supportive housing, prevention services, and critical resources that address systemic barriers such as a shortage of affordable housing, poverty, and challenges accessing care. Through the L.A. Works AmeriCorps VISTA Program, LAFH is embarking on a capacity-building project focused on strengthening its social media and communications infrastructure to better support its mission. The VISTA Digital Media & Communications Specialist will develop sustainable systems and long-term strategies for social media engagement, storytelling, and analytics that elevate participant voices, highlight LAFH’s work, and increase visibility of homelessness issues.
