INTERNATIONAL SEAFARERS CENTER at PORTS of LONG BEACH & LOS ANGELES
TRANSPORTATION
With our temporary housing, we provide Seafarers a haven of rest which is well deserved and necessary after a long journey overseas. The housing includes bedding, bathrooms, showers, etc. All the basic amenities that Seafarers desperately need when coming to port.
MINISTRY
At International Seafarer's Center, we are dedicated to supporting individuals through our various initiatives. With one of our initiatives being Ministry, we are always striving to make a difference. Whether it is in our community, or one much farther away from home, we know that all in need deserve our help and support.
COMMUNICATION SERVICES
We provide communication services including phone, internet, computers, etc. so that Seafarers are able to communicate with family, friends and other loved ones. Seafarers spend a tremendous amount of time away from these individuals while traveling by sea and this service enables them to connect.
TEMPORARY HOUSING
We pick up Seafarers from the Port and drive them to necessary destinations for banking needs, purchase groceries, acquire clothing, etc. Additionally, we shuttle the Seafaers to the Center for a place of rest, sense of community, communication needs, etc.
