About Us
Maximus is a leading provider of health and human services worldwide. For more than 40 years, Maximus has partnered with state, federal and local governments to provide communities with critical health and human service programs. We leverage our extensive experience to develop high quality services and solutions that are cost effective and tailored to each communities’ unique needs.
On a local level, we have partnered with Los Angeles County Department of Public Social Services for over 20 years providing GAIN case management services for CalWORKs participants. We guide participants on their journey to finding employment paying a living wage to meet their families’ needs.
We recognize the importance of giving back to the communities in which we live and work. In response, the Maximus Board of Director created the Maximus Foundation in 2000. The Foundation focuses our grant giving to carefully selected partners who have the expertise and capability to enhance our communities and the quality of life of the people we serve. We provide financial support for nonprofit organizations and charities that share our commitment in helping disadvantaged populations and underserved communities.

Success Stories
Arusyak
I am an immigrant in the USA. I have green card that’s how I could apply for Cash Aid. As a single parent I have gotten so much support from GAIN program. I applied for Cash Aid because I didn’t have a job here. I was also a fulltime student and GAIN program helped me with my college supplies. I participated in a program (TSE) which was also a big support for me to have job. I learned all the details to apply for a job due to the classes. Now here I am, working in Maximus LA GAIN. I got to the level I have been dreaming to be at. I am sure that working with them will push me higher and higher in future.

My name is Darren. I started with the GAIN program about two years ago. I started from the bottom with no job, no experience, and no skills. I was having trouble finding an office job like I always wanted. My previous jobs didn’t allow me time to spend with my family on the weekends or holidays.
My Case Manager referred me to Job Club with LACOE and it was exactly what I needed. They help you plan the career you’ve always dreamed of. I started going every day which was fun. My goal was to connect with work opportunities that would lead me to having a better job and a better career.
After finishing Job Cub, my Case Manager referred me to the TSE program, where you can start getting more experience and find a job once it’s over. I was placed with Maximus working as Customer Service Assistant (CSA) and was really happy with the job. I was all into it and having the best experience of my life. When a position became open with Maximus, I applied and now have an administrative job with the company, learning new skills every day. Thank you GAIN and Maximus!
