HOW WE IMPACT THE COMMUNITY
WHAT’S OUR FOCUS
We deliver over $36 million in health and human services across the
San Diego region, impacting more than 10,500 clients and family members
through our work in homelessness, mental health, substance use disorder treatment,
and early childhood education.
Thank you, SDG&E, for assembling essential kits for our CERRC program with a generous $3,000 SDGivE grant—bringing comfort and care to those on their path to recovery. November 2024.

“At ECS Head Start, our excellent, caring teachers are why families trust us to provide a safe, nurturing environment that supports every aspect of their child’s growth.

At ECS, we’re dedicated to helping families thrive.”
