Community of Hope works to improve health and end family homelessness to make Washington, DC more equitable.
About us
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.

Washington DC has only one free-standing birth center and only one place on the entire eastern half of the city where a person may give birth. Community of Hope’s Family Health and Birth Center is unique! There are too few birth centers embedded in the holistic care of a Federally Qualified Health Center. Our patients get comprehensive support—from prenatal to postnatal care—with experienced midwives and providers by your side and they are connected to primary medical care, dental and emotional wellness for the whole family! Join us in lifting up birth centers around our nation who are helping families experience healthy beginnings! #FamilyHealthandBirthCenter #FHBC #CommunityofHope #BirthCenter #MidwiferyCare #CommunitySupport #DCHealth #HealthyFamilies #BCW24 #BirthCenterWeek2024 #BirthCenter #BirthCenterEquity #GrowBirthCenters #GrowCommunity

Thank You to Our Incredible Sponsors and Volunteers! Together, we made the Bellevue Back to School Bash a huge success! With the help of our dedicated volunteers and generous sponsors, we distributed almost 1,500 backpacks full of school supplies for children from Pre-K 3 to high school seniors. A special shoutout to our amazing sponsors: Amazon Housing Equity Fund, Bloomberg Industry Group, AmeriHealth Caritas District of Columbia, CoStar Group Builds, MedStar Family Choice-DC and so many contributors. Your support made all the difference! Thank you to our corporate volunteers, Bellevue Community Advisory Council, friends, employees, and everyone who pitched in—from packing to the day of the event. We did it! The smiles on the faces of hundreds of kids as they head back to school made it all worth it. Thank you for sharing hope! 📚 #BackToSchool #CommunityStrong #ThankYou
