OPCC (Ocean Park Community Center)

www.opcc.org

Founded in 1963, Ocean Park Community Center (OPCC) is a network of housing and services that provides assistance to low-income and homeless youth, adults and families, battered women and their children, at-risk youth, and people living with mental illness. This assistance comes in the form of emergency, transitional and permanent housing, mental and medical health programs, food, counseling, peer support, and in-depth preparation for independent living.

 

OPCC is committed to empowering its clients to rebuild their lives and overcome mental illness, poverty, domestic violence, and homelessness. Each service provided represents contact with a human being and an opportunity to assist him or her in finding a better life. It’s not just a sack lunch. It’s one tool among many to feed someone who is hungry and to begin the long process of building trust. A shelter bed is more than a mattress in a building. It’s an opportunity for a person to live indoors again as part of a community, and remember what it’s like to feel a hint of dignity. It’s not just a call to a domestic violence hotline to ask a question. It may be the call that saves a woman’s life. Each statistic has a story. A human story that is as complex as it is compelling.
