Mission

Christ House provides 24-hour comprehensive and compassionate care for people experiencing homelessness with acute medical needs in the District of Columbia and offers assistance in addressing critical issues to help break the cycle of homelessness.

  • Christ House is a 33-bed residential medical facility for men experiencing homelessness in Washington, DC. Patients receive 24-hour medical care from a team of medical and social service professionals who evaluate, develop, and deliver a comprehensive plan of care for each patient to ensure evidence-based health recommendations and promote patient autonomy. Our medical respite team treats patients, performs tests, changes dressings, manages medications, provides immunizations, and conducts pre-and post-operative care including patient education to help patients heal and manage their conditions. In 2024, 97% of patients suffered from three or more medical conditions, 72.8% had a mental health diagnosis, and 61.5% had a substance use disorder or a history of substance use disorder at the time of their admission. In 2024, Christ House provided 8,877 days of care with patients staying an average of 41.3 days. Christ House has welcomed over 10,000 patient admissions since its inception in 1985.

    Expenses $3,046,237

  • Our holistic services include shelter, substance use counseling, case management, appointment transportation, patient activities, and meal services. Our New Day Recovery Program provides patients an opportunity to initiate their recovery from substance use disorders. Activities include an intensive in-house course, access to multiple on-site AA and NA meetings, one-on-one counseling, and peer-support. Case managers work with patients to obtain legal documents, apply for government benefits, ensure appropriate health insurance coverage, locate family members, and secure housing upon discharge. Our transportation program ensures patients reach their outside appointments safely. It is our hope that these efforts will support our patients in breaking the cycle of homelessness.

    Expenses $1,324,991

  • The Kairos Program is a permanent supportive housing community for up to 45 formerly homeless men that combines a sense of family with community service through a 12-step recovery program. All Kairos members are former patients who have chronic health conditions which prevent them from securing paid full-time work. With staff support, members actively engage in their recovery and maintain their health and wellness. Clinical staff work with members, who also have access to Christ Houses medical services when intensive health care is needed. Significant program aspects include routine counseling, a therapeutic work program, community service, and modeling recovery for patients staying at Christ House. An impressive 78% of Kairos members maintain a lifetime sobriety rate.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
