About Caroline Severance Manor
Caroline Severance Manor is located in the Mid Wilshire/Koreatown neighborhood of the City of Los Angeles. The five-parcel property was assembled in partnership with the California Community Foundation Land Trust and the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles, which owns a childcare facility on two parcels, and acquired two nearby parcels for a parking lot. MHC is working with the church and the Ketchum YMCA of Downtown Los Angeles to plan a mixed-use community that will include parking for the church and a licensed childcare center. In a unique partnership with the Los Angeles County Departments of Mental Health and Children and Family Services, the family units will be targeted to Kincare Families—that is, households in which children are cared for by a relative other than their parent.
