To that end, TLCS began operation in 1981 with a total of 3 employees. Today, TLCS has more than 80 dedicated employees offering a full array of transitional and permanent housing to individuals with psychiatric disabilities.

Our supportive services such as case management, entitlement advocacy, and life skills development are tailored individually to the needs of the clients we serve. TLCS currently provides services to more than 1,200 individuals annually.

Can anyone live in a TLCS Housing program?
Most TLCS housing programs are designed for adults with psychiatric disabilities. Some of our housing programs can also accommodate family members as well.

I have been in a TLCS Program before and need help again. Can I receive assistance?
Yes. We encourage you to contact us if we can be of any help.

How much does it cost me to receive help?
The fees for TLCS’ Programs are dependent upon your ability to pay. If you have no financial resources you are still eligible to receive services.

I would like to work for TLCS but I have been a client in the mental health system. Would TLCS still hire me?
TLCS values the diversity of backgrounds of individuals seeking employment. Several individuals that have received services from TLCS currently work here.

If I participate in a TLCS Program, is my information kept confidential?
All information about you is kept strictly confidential—even the fact that you requested and/or received services. Information is only released with your authorization.

I have heard good things about the TLCS system and would like to make a financial contribution. Who should I talk with?
Direct financial contributions, beneficiary designation, structured trust payments, and in-kind service and product donations are all welcome. If you would like to discuss a contribution to our organization please contact  Erin Johansen, Development Director at (916) 441-0123 Ext. 115 or click here to Donate.
