Do you have children under the age of 18 and in need of support?

Every family, with children under the age of 18, at risk of, or experiencing homelessness in the District of Columbia should visit the Virginia Williams Family Resource Center, the central intake for DC’s coordinated homelessness assistance system for families with children, before receiving housing and social services. This is the only place for families in DC facing housing instability to obtain a shelter referral.
