Weingart Center’s main campus — a 650-bed interim housing site — sits alongside Weingart Tower and 600 San Pedro.

Together, these developments represent how we’re building housing solutions that support people not just with shelter, but with the tools they need for lasting stability.

In 2024, Weingart Center served 1,092,453 meals across our housing developments — an average of more than 2,370 meals every single day.

These are meals our clients didn’t have to worry about — because when basic needs are met, people can begin to rebuild.

When Isaac moved into Weingart Tower after receiving transitional support at Hilda L. Solis Care First Village, he gained more than just housing. With the stability of permanent supportive housing, he’s been able to focus on his health, connect with his community, and use art as a tool for healing.

His story shows the power of supportive housing to transform lives.

Built in just five months during the COVID-19 crisis, the Hilda L. Solis Care First Village now offers 232 units of safe, interim housing.

From landscaped courtyards to dining areas and even a dog park, this community shows what’s possible when urgency meets compassion. I’m proud that Weingart Center operates this site and others like it across Los Angeles.
