Helping Families Help Themselves
OUR INITIATIVES
Programs & Services
Santa Maria helps families build self-sufficiency and break the cycles of generational poverty by offering a hand-up rather than a hand-out. We help families help themselves by offering a range of programs that cover education, health, employment, financial stability, and family support.
