Our Mission


Our mission is to prevent families from becoming affected by drugs, alcohol, and gangs and rescue those who are already affected through spiritual and counseling programs and services. Prevencion y Rescate’s values are piety, action and education. We provide family codependency group support, drug and alcohol dependency 12 step program, parenting classes, youth support groups, spiritual retreats, weekly family assemblies, street outreach, and home visitations.

The core of our work is based on one of the fundamental Catholic teachings; upholding the dignity of every human person. We believe that every human being is made in the image and likeness of God, therefore each life is sacred and valuable. As children of God, we all deserve to live a life free of addiction and gang violence. Our prevention and rehabilitation services are primarily in Spanish and open to all individuals irrespective of religious affiliation.
