Crisis & Bridge Housing
Languille Shelter
Languille Shelter provides Crisis/Bridge Housing for unaccompanied women experiencing homelessness. It consists of 30 beds in 15 semi-private units.
We maintain partnerships with a variety of agencies and organizations to ensure that we are providing quality services to our clients. We continue to strengthen our role as Bridge Housing for clients that have been matched but are awaiting their permanent housing placement, and as Crisis Housing for those not currently in the Los Angeles CES (Coordinated Entry System), we are able to effectively evaluate our clients' housing barriers and connect them with affordable permanent supportive housing.

Languille Shelter provides a continuum of care – from street outreach to drop-in services to shelter and finally to permanent housing. We understand that each woman's journey is unique, and we're here to support her at every step.
