Our Story
Korean Community Services (KCS) was established in 1977 as an immigrant mission project of St. Nicholas Korean Church in Los Angeles, with initial funding from the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles. Over the years, KCS has evolved into a vital social service organization, providing essential support such as job training, counseling, and legal assistance to Korean immigrants. In 1992, KCS relocated to Orange County, expanding its services to include mandated court counseling for domestic violence and substance abuse. By 2000, KCS became one of the largest counseling providers in Orange County, serving the Courts and Social Services. In response to the healthcare needs of vulnerable populations, KCS began offering health screenings and education in 2013, ultimately becoming a Federally Qualified Health Center in 2019.
