Everyone Home DC’s Family Rapid Rehousing Program provides short-term rental and utility assistance to families experiencing homelessness in Washington, DC. Families work with Rapid Rehousing case managers to set goals for greater housing and economic self-sufficiency.

Everyone Home DC’s Family Rapid Rehousing team and partners provide support through housing stability-focused case management, employment preparation services, affordable housing search support, transportation assistance, mental health services, educational or vocational training, and related services to help make the transition to self-sufficient living possible.
