With hope, one can accomplish anything. Families who struggle with poverty and homelessness can achieve their goals. They can overcome challenges like having no safe place to sleep, poor health, and unemployment, and enjoy connected families with happy and healthy children. With the help of our community of donors, volunteers and partners, Community of Hope stays focused on its mission, which is to create opportunities for low-income families in Washington, DC, including those experiencing homelessness, to achieve good health, a stable home, family-sustaining income, and hope.

Community of Hope has worked tirelessly for almost four decades to impact the future for low-income, homeless and underserved families in Washington, DC. Originally founded as a compassionate ministry of the Church of the Nazarene, Community of Hope was incorporated as an independently-run nonprofit organization in 1980. As the needs of our community grew, we have expanded our services across the city, with the same holistic, compassionate approach that inspired our beginnings. 

With a team of more than 200 compassionate staff, hundreds of volunteers, and thousands of donors, we are building a thriving organization that is caring for families, improving lives and leading change.

In 2012, Community of Hope was awarded The Washington Post Award for Excellence in Nonprofit Management by the Center for Nonprofit Advancement and The Washington Post. In 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018 we were selected as one of The Washington Post 150 Top Workplaces based on feedback from our staff.
