We are working to ensure all of our neighbors are housed, healthy and safe.
Join our team!

At The People Concern, we are on a mission to end human suffering.

Our work directly impacts the lives of thousands of people annually and brings us one step closer to securing a future where no one has to live outside or in a violent household.

At The People Concern, we believe everyone should be housed, healthy and safe. Because being vaccinated reduces the risk of being infected with COVID-19, and generally minimizes the risk of severe symptoms or hospitalization, effective 2022, we are following mandated protocol for healthcare organizations in California and requiring full vaccination and a booster to be completed by all employees, vendors and contractors within a reasonable timeframe of eligibility or require proof of eligibility of an exemption from this requirement due to a medical condition or sincerely-held religious belief, subject to applicable federal, state and local laws.
