Improving Lives Since 1856 – And Onward!

With the help of our Board of Directors and a Strategic Planning Committee, we have developed a three-year strategic plan that will enable Maryvale to serve more people with additional programs and services. As Los Angeles’ longest-running charity dedicated to serving children and families in need, our programs will further cement our role as one of the region’s most trusted providers of service for the underserved. In this section of the website, we provide an overview of our strategic plan; our vision, and updated mission and values; and a letter from our president.
