Episcopal Community Services
ECS stands at the forefront of social transformation with a 98-year commitment
to empowering the most vulnerable members of society. Its mission to break
barriers and transform communities is evident in its programs, reaching
over 10,500 students, clients, families, and community members annually.
Focused on homelessness, behavioral health, substance use disorder
treatment, and early childhood education, the organization operates an
annual budget of $45 million across 20 locations in the San Diego region. ECS'
multidisciplinary team provides compassionate, evidence-based support
enriched by a blend of lived and professional experience. This approach
ensures holistic care, extending beyond immediate aid to foster long-term
impact in the lives of those they serve. To support this transformative work,
