LeSar Support Services (a LeSar Company)

What LeSar Support Services (a LeSar Company) does

LeSar Support Services, Inc. (LSS), a privately held California corporation operating as a subsidiary of LeSar Holdings and branded "A LeSar Company," is a professional services firm that provides intermediary support for large-scale housing and community resiliency initiatives. Headquartered at 845 15th Street in San Diego, LSS serves federal, state, and local government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and managed care organizations across at least 14 U.S. states, including Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Nevada, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Its service portfolio spans fiduciary services, grantmaking, compliance monitoring and reporting, project management, program design and implementation, capacity building, outreach and case management, and project-specific staffing.

LSS delivers these services through a subject-matter-expert operating model rather than a software platform; its only dedicated technology asset is a HIPAA-compliant Fund Administration Portal that processes housing deposits and flex funds for Medicaid members on behalf of health plan care coordinators. Notable engagements include the ReCoverCA Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Program, through which LSS provided implementation support for over $500 million in federal disaster-recovery funding, and the design of a $3.4 million community grant fund that aligned program goals with community-identified priorities.

LSS generates revenue through professional services fees tied to program design, fiduciary management, grantmaking, compliance monitoring, project management, and staffing engagements, primarily with public sector and healthcare buyers. Pricing is project- and quote-based rather than publicly disclosed, the go-to-market motion is consultative and direct, and the firm maintains a HIPAA-compliant posture and E-Verify participation to qualify for regulated federal and state procurements. The company is led by Founder and CEO Jennifer LeSar, with Chief Operations Officer Rich Valdez and Executive Vice President Zack Olmstead overseeing operations.
