Welcome, Cloonee fans!
Founded on Skid Row in 1980, Para Los Niños partners with thousands of L.A.’s working families to achieve their educational, emotional and economic goals. In addition to providing early education, TK-8th grade education, youth workforce services and family services, we remain the only children’s mental health provider in the Skid Row neighborhood. The need is real, and the impact is powerful.
