Who We Are
Thrive DC began in 1979 as the Dinner Program for Homeless Women, a response to the first major wave of homelessness on the streets of downtown Washington, DC. Over time, we began serving meals to men as well as women, created our job training program, and introduced case management and educational programming.
Thrive DC provides the last safety net for people facing economic crisis and housing instability, and the first step towards independence for people experiencing extended periods of homelessness.
