Official Shalom Center

For over 20 years, Shalom Center for T.R.E.E. of Life (Therapy, Research, Education & Empowerment) has been a trusted nonprofit dedicated to increasing safe, affordable housing and fostering healthy neighborhoods, especially within the Korean community. For 15 years, it has helped low- and moderate-income families in Los Angeles County achieve homeownership, assisting over 50,300 families and facilitating nearly $350 million in mortgages. Beyond housing, Shalom Center invests in community health and education, offering credit and money management classes for immigrants and flexible “mobile office” services to meet clients’ needs. Adapting to economic changes, it raised $2 million to support homeowners through programs like the Hardest Hit Fund. Through partnerships with government, faith-based, and financial institutions, Shalom Center continues to expand its mission—blending people- and place-based strategies to build sustainable communities and empower future generations.
