KCS Narrative

Our Story

Korean Community Services (KCS) was started in 1977 by Reverend Matthew Ahn as a mission project of St. Nicholas Church based in Los Angeles. Through the 1970’s and 1980’s, KCS emerged as a dynamic social service organization providing job training, information and outreach, counseling, food bank, legal assistance, and educational materials.

In 1992, KCS relocated to Orange County, CA and expanded its programs to include mandated court counseling for domestic violence, child abuse, drunk driving, and drug offenders. By 2000, KCS became one of the largest Orange County counseling providers serving the Courts, Probation Department, and Social Services.

In 2013, recognizing the immense healthcare needs of the community, KCS began offering health screenings and health education to its counseling and social service clients. By 2016, KCS became a California community clinic and in late 2019, became a Federally Qualified Health Center.
