Membership

Member Testimony

"When I found El Centro, I was living at the rescue mission. There is a lot of respect here, they gave me an opportunity. El Centro helps me in many ways. I don't want to be walking the street, I like to work, it makes me feel so much better about myself, I don't want to be doing things that aren't right. Without El Centro all these people would be out on the street."

—Gilberto
