LPF does not have any required in-house programs that all guests must attend during their stay. On the other hand, many guests are required to attend outside programs depending on their individual issues. For instance, a person with a prior or present history of drug and alcohol abuse must attend two to five AA/NA meetings per week depending on their length of sobriety and other programs they may be attending. Also a person diagnosed with a mental illness must have counselor contact and access to required medication if lack of either interferes with every day living. LPF also has communication with the community. Once a week an advocate from Neighborhood Legal Services comes to LPF to speak with any guest regarding legal questions or those who may require any legal assistance. In addition, a person from Crisis Services comes two to three times a week to speak with guests who need assistance with direction regarding services such as applying for Social Services or hooking up with mental health counseling.
