Since 1991, Friendship Place has used solution-driven and person-centered homeless services to serve the DC region. People experiencing homelessness turn to Friendship Place to meet their immediate needs: showers, laundry, meals, basic needs, blankets, healthcare, and more. A street outreach team coordinates services for neighbors in Ward 3, ensuring more people know that Friendship Place offers free drop-in services, including a health clinic. Young people under the age of 30 participate in developmentally-informed services while veterans work with staff to gain rapid rehousing. Through a job placement program, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing, Friendship Place empowers people experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness to attain stable housing and rebuild their lives. Ending homelessness for thousands of people annually, Friendship Place believes in a region where everyone has a place to call "home."
