Founded in 1975, Koreatown Youth and Community Center (KYCC) was established to support a growing population of at-risk youth in Los Angeles. Today, KYCC is the leading multiservice organization, supporting children and their families in the areas of education, health, housing, and finances. KYCC is committed to making Koreatown a safe and beautiful place to live and work. KYCC’s mission is to serve the evolving needs of the Korean American population in the greater Los Angeles area as well as the multiethnic Koreatown community. KYCC’s programs and services are directed toward recently immigrated, economically disadvantaged youth and families, and promote community socioeconomic empowerment. Today, we serve more than 7,000 annually. Most are first generation immigrants from Asia and Latin America. All KYCC services are provided in Spanish, Korean and English and represent a comprehensive, multipronged “Whole Family” approach to working with Koreatown’s low-income families.
