A Path to Ending Chronic Homelessness in DC

Published by Department of Human Services | District of Columbia | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 10:37 PM | Dataset Last Updated: January 17, 2023 at 12:00 AM
The District of Columbia is committed to making homelessness rare, brief, and non-recurring through innovative, person-centered and research-based practices. Aligned with research-based strategies, the District expanded its housing voucher program for people experiencing chronic homelessness by more than 100% in Fiscal Years 2022 and 2023. Additionally, new investments in housing vouchers for individuals and families have been made in each subsequent year. For the first time, ending chronic homelessness is in sight. Still though, helping individuals and families access housing through the voucher program is complicated and time-consuming. This page provides an overview of our system and processes, tracks progress and articulates the challenges we face and opportunities for growth.
