About Building Lives ENT, INC. - Anna Mae’s House
Anna Mae’s House represents African American ancestry and history, reflecting the idea that many families have an “Anna Mae” who goes above and beyond to help others. Through this mission, Building Lives serves formerly incarcerated individuals in Los Angeles County through housing, employment, and life-skills programs. They report housing 1,200 people, helping 60% achieve rehabilitation, 50% secure employment, and 40% reunite with family.
Preparing for Life Beyond Structured Care
They ensure access to residential and outpatient levels of care, ranging from intensive outpatient programs (IOP) to supportive housing for ongoing recovery. As an IOP, they support clients working to overcome substance use disorders through recovery groups, weekly 1-on-1 sessions, relapse prevention, creative art therapy, and weekly drug testing. Residential services give clients a comfortable place to live while they work toward independent living.
