Welcome to the Double Secret Project
We believe in treating people like people, not billable hours. Radically transforming Los Angeles' mental health system and the way in which services are provided to our community members experiencing homelessness. We are here for "whatever it takes" to build a better system for us all!
Built out of frustration from working within the current fragmented mental health and homeless services systems, our team believes in doing things differently. As respected providers within the community with expertise in providing intensive supportive services, we have seen the cracks and know what it takes to stop people from falling through them.
This is the next step...

Integrating with the community to achieve improved health, wellness, and quality of life. Meeting people where they are on the recovery spectrum; we embody the platinum rule: "Treat people the way that they would like to be treated."CustomizationLos Angeles' homelessness crisis is a decades-old issue and each person has unique needs. Our team bridges the gaps people often fall through by providing multidisciplinary services for as long as a person needs them.
