Casa de los Angelitos, based in the South of Los Angeles, has offered housing and support to pregnant women in crisis since 1987. In a home-like setting, residents cook meals together, attend life-skills classes, and prepare for motherhood in a stable and nurturing environment. The program emphasizes independence, accountability, and community—guiding women toward lasting change for themselves and their children.
