Activities or mission (Part I)

Friendship Place is a leader in the Washington, DC, metro area in developing solutions to homelessness that have measurable results and a lasting impact. Friendship Place's mission is to empower people who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness to attain stable housing and rebuild their lives. Friendship Place helped 4,993 and 4,497 people in the years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, with comprehensive, wraparound services that included street outreach, drop-in, free medical and psychiatric services, job placement, case management, transitional shelter, rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, permanent supportive housing, and specialized services for families, youth, and veterans.

  • Veterans ServicesProvides short-term, intensive case management and rental assistance to help homeless veterans and their families get back into housing quickly and to prevent homelessness for veteran households at risk of eviction. The program targets extremely low-income households (less than 30% of the Area Median Income) and serves the District of Columbia and eight surrounding counties in Maryland and Virginia. The program received additional funding from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs for a long-term shallow subsidy initiative for single veteran households in the District of Columbia. During the year ended September 30, 2023, 531 households were served (encompassing 709 total family members) through all services; of those who exited the program during the year, 95% graduated to stable permanent housing.

    Expenses $7,748,500 · Revenue $7,729,908

  • Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH)Friendship Place is a leading DC provider of PSH for highly vulnerable, chronically homeless individuals and families. The PSH programs are based on a low-barrier, Housing First service model and include scattered-site apartments and an apartment building for 40 men. Case managers help participants transition directly from homelessness into housing, and then provide long-term support to address the full range of their needs and empower them to achieve personal goals for recovery, wellness, self-sufficiency, and integration into the community. During the year ended September 30, 2023, 178 PSH families and 355 PSH individuals were housed. PSH housing programs ended the fiscal year with a housing retention rate of 97%.

With the capacity to serve up to 50 families at a time, The Brooks is designed to address the needs of resident families with wrap-around supportive services, clinical supports, child programming, and housing-solutions with a goal of moving families from shelter to stable housing within 90 days of entry. During the year ended September 30, 2023, 141 families were served (encompassing 460 total persons), exited 103 households 67% to stable housing and 63% of families exited in less than 90 days.

During the year ended September 30, 2023, 204 people were placed into jobs, with a three-month retention rate of 95%.Street Outreach: Friendship Place conducts Street Outreach to men and women experiencing homelessness in upper Northwest DC, with a special focus on the hardest-to-serve those who have been on the streets for an extended period of time, who have mental health and/or substance abuse issues, and who are disconnected from DC's continuum of care. During the year ended September 30, 2023, 129 individuals were served.Drop-in: At Friendship Place's Welcome Center, visitors can help themselves to a cup of coffee, a meal, and free necessities such as toiletries, Metro passes, undergarments, and rain ponchos. Visitors can also use the phone or a computer or do laundry, receive mail, and meet with a case manager to take steps to rebuild their lives. During the year ended September 30, 2023, 1,015 individuals received service, including 180 who received assistance to successfully obtain vital documents.Free Clinic: Anyone who comes through the door of Friendship Place's Welcome Center can get free access to a doctor, nurse, or psychiatrist. There are no insurance or even ID requirements, and same-day appointments are available. Services were scaled back during the year due to COVID-19 and the availability of practitioners.Before Thirty: Provides individualized, person-centered, and developmentally-informed supportive services and counseling to homeless and at-risk 17- to 29-year-olds.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
