Enki El Monte

Enki Health and Research Systems, Inc. (EHRS) is a non-profit corporation providing mental health, drug, and alcohol administrative and clinical services in East Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley areas. The Corporation’s administrative office is in El Monte, California. The Corporation is organized so that each program has the authority and responsibility necessary for its own operation. This organization has proven very effective in providing autonomy so that each program is responsive to any unique needs of the community being served, while the central office support and supervision provide quality assurance and cost-effective administration. The organization started as an evaluation and program development agency with its early years involved in national programs. For example, Enki started the Nutrition and Aging Services in 32 cities which has now become the Senior Nutrition program at hundreds of sites. The outstanding EHRS services in this project were recognized by Congress in the Congressional Record.
