MAAC's History  

In 1965, MAAC Project opened its doors to serve San Diego's disadvantaged. One million clients later, MAAC is still acting as a catalyst to help individuals and families become self-sufficient. MAAC provides a spectrum of unique programs designed to assist clients by engaging them in the enhancement of their own lives through lifestyle changes. The programs strive to improve clients’ economic standing as well as their ability to access resources available to them.

MAAC has become one of San Diego's most distinguished and comprehensive social service agencies. MAAC serves San Diego County families through HeadStart/FirstStart, nutritional programs, low- income home weatherization and improvement, two notable and culturally specific recovery homes, award winning affordable housing complexes and a charter school.

The availability of secure and attractive homes and the development of a community, which provides access to childcare, pre-school, recreational activities, computer training, job referrals, and services designed to enhance the livability and viability of the neighborhood, builds pride and self-respect. In turn, this leads to self-development, respect for others, and citizenship participation. These are MAAC goals. This is the path and direction on which MAAC is embarked.
