Since 1922, the key to our longevity and success has been combining our service mission with clever and sometimes outrageous fun🦁

Our very own Lion Randy Holmes MD and Citlalilt Pastrana spoke to the club about the residential treatment for pregnant and postpartum women with a substance use disorder.

This is accomplished at The La Cada and Allen House programs. Dr. Holmes is a Nationally recognized leading expert in the field of Substance Abuse.

We are fortunate to have him as a long standing member of the Whittier Host Lions and Doctor at Whittier PIH.

At our weekly meeting Mike Liaw and Andrew Wilson spoke to the club about the work of the Orchard Community.

Mike Liaw started this as housing for young men aging out of the foster system and providing a staple living environment for them and helping them to get established and live on their own.

This is done in a house with an ADU unit to assist as many as they can.
