Greater Philadelphia Asian Social Services Center (GPASS) serves the needs of Asians citywide, with emphasis upon the Logan and Olney communities. Working in collaboration with residents and neighborhood organizations GPASS promotes individual and community empowerment and provides quality social service and health programs for all low-income members of the Logan and Olney communities.
GPASS is committed to the health and well being of the community. Its mission is to provide the highest quality, outpatient rehabilitation and treatment services for substance abusers, their families and significant others at the lowest possible cost. The Center provides care regardless of the clients’ ability to pay.
GPASS was founded in 1993 for the purpose of advocating equal rights, goods and services for an under-served, multi-cultural population. To that end, we began to provide information, referrals and direct services to those in need. The Logan/Olney, North Kensington, Germantown, Lawndale and Hunting Park areas have many first and second generation immigrants experiencing difficulties adjusting to American culture and society, and GPASS has been helping these communities cope with these problems since its inception. GPASS has been providing counselors who speak English, Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, Cambodian and Spanish for clients who are at a disadvantage due to language barriers and cultural differences since it began and continues to do so.
