We also provide financial assistance, if possible. This mission is accomplished through education, faith-based pastoral counseling, cultural music and art classes, health, sewing and language/literacy classes. Pajaro is in a depressed area of North Monterey County, with below poverty economic levels for most residents; this fact lends itself to chronic levels of economic needs; especially when the planting/harvesting season is over. During a crisis period the needs rise exponentially. This year we had a major flood. All programs ceased except for client assistance with evacuation, flood relief and flood recovery needs. We are still in this process. 4 4 0 40 150 0 0 964373 0 2300 0 2383 0 150 0 969206 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 631069 0 631069 0 338137 253101 605887 13300 27261 239801 578626 X The mission/purpose of Casa de la Cultura Center, since 1996, is a faith-based organization that empowers the community residents of Pajaro, Ca, a farm working community, to have a voice, live in a healthy, safe environment and to acquire skills in order to navigate resources.
