Thousand Oaks / California / United States
Welcome to Community Conscience Community Conscience is a non-profit 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) organization that owns and operates the "Under One Roof" human services center serving Thousand Oaks and the greater Conejo Valley in Southern California. Twelve social services agencies operate rent free at the 17, 500 square-foot Hillcrest building providing them with approximately $250, 000 in savings per year they can otherwise use to deliver services. Our tenants include such groups such as the Conejo Free Clinic, Hospice of the Conejo Valley, Senior Concerns and Youth Employment Services. Three government social service agencies are also tenants including the Social Service Administration, Probation Youth Services and WIC Nutrition Program. The cost of operating the building is met through Community Conscience fund raising activities and co-operative fair market lease agreements with federal, state, and local government agencies such as the Social Security Administration. Bringing government and non-profit social service groups together prevents duplication of programs and helps fill any gaps in their services. A building such as Under One Roof means a great deal to the efficiencies of its tenants. Over the years, social service agencies may alter their missions and practices, but they remain committed to the residents of the Conejo Valley. Community Conscience will be there to help ensure they are able to do their job.
