Lighthouse of Oakland County, Inc. (LOC) has been providing services to low-income families in Oakland County since 1972. What began as an effort to provide food and clothing from the back door of a local church has grown into a family of agencies providing a full range of services designed to move people from crisis and instability to self-sufficiency and independence.
Last year, Lighthouse of Oakland County provided assistance to families and individuals in need on 70,000 separate occasions. The services these deserving people received were provided by LOC’s three key subsidiaries: Lighthouse Community Development (LCD), rejuvenating communities through affordable housing and educated homeowners; Lighthouse Emergency Services (LES), providing emergency food, housing, medical, utility and other services to people who need immediate help; and Lighthouse PATH (PATH), which provides long-term housing and support to help women achieve self-sufficiency and a healthy family environment for their children.
These agencies are supported by Lighthouse of Oakland County, which delivers cost-effective administrative services, community outreach, volunteer recruitment, training and placement, grant writing and management, public relations, database management and a host of other services that enable its subsidiaries to focus on what they do best... serving the many who need us.
Lighthouse believes in people and their capacity to improve their lives. It empowers people to develop their potential and strengthen their communities by encouraging innovation and leadership, maximizing resources, and promoting cooperation among all Lighthouse constituencies.
