A Place Called Home

The mission of A Place Called Home (APCH) is to inspire, encourage, and support the young people in South Los Angeles to achieve social, emotional, and economic success. We envision a world where your zip code does not determine your future; where all children have the opportunity to find happiness and success in life.

APCH delivers free programs and services to enrolled youth (aged 8 to mid-20s) which includes a full suite of on-site programs at our community center in South Central. APCH is helping to build a community in South Los Angeles that is creative, media savvy, culturally and civically connected, and ready for success in the 21st century economy.

The Golden Globe Foundation is generously continuing their support for APCH Digital Media, offering programs in filmmaking, photography, and media development. The GGF’s grant supports creative learning and sequential arts programs for underserved youth that underpin growth toward mastery, encourage digital literacy, and support multiple creative cross-disciplinary collaborations. With the GGF’s help, APCH is engaging underserved and underrepresented youth of South Central Los Angeles in the cinematic, digital, theatrical, musical, and visual arts.
