Lutheran Social Services of the Mahoning Valley:

To address growing social and economic needs in the Mahoning Valley area, several clergy members convened to create a social service agency. Lutheran Social Services of the Mahoning Valley (LSS-MV) was established in October 2002.

At LSS-MV, we believe every person deserves the opportunity to live a safe, healthy and meaningful life. To do this, people must have access to basic social services, especially when times are tough and emergencies arise.

LSS-MV provides services to people based on their individual needs:

• If experiencing a crisis, we offer emergency referral assistance.
• If in need of social service coordination, we assist in obtaining personal, social and financial support.
• If people are looking to improve their job prospects, we link residents to education, training and employment programs.
• If people are overcoming adjustment or behavioral problems, we provide access to counseling and support.
• If people are concerned about their health and safety, we sponsor healthcare classes, instructional programs and crime prevention activities.
• And if people are looking to give something back, we offer many opportunities for community service.
