Mission

Interfaith Community Services, was founded in 1979 by a handful of diverse faith communities to address the needs of low-income, homeless, and underserved populations. Interfaith offers 12 programs throughout North San Diego County, from the coastal City of Oceanside to inland communities south and east of our Escondido headquarters. With more than 3,400 volunteers in direct service, more than 400 member faith centers, and 100 professional staff, Interfaith served 33,700 unique persons with a variety of services just last year. Interfaith's programs are designed to overlap one another, to be comprehensive, to offer wrap-around services that assist clients in finding long-term solutions that will enable them to become self-sufficient.
