Parking:
Free and plentiful at this office complex. A volunteer will be in front of PPP to direct you to the front door. There is a drop-off area in front.
Directions:
From 101, take the Harbor Blvd. exit, going west (towards El Camino Real). Your GPS may tell you to turn at the light at Harbor Blvd. and Industrial Rd., which is fine but you’ll have to wind around a bit. We think it’s easier to take the next driveway (just after the light) into the office complex. Drive straight for about 150 feet. You’ll see the front, glass door of PPP on the right side. Look for a volunteer, a red cone, or some signage!
