Mission & Vision

The mission of Christ House is to provide comprehensive and compassionate care for people experiencing homelessness with acute medical needs in the District of Columbia and to offer assistance in addressing critical issues to help break the cycle of homelessness.

Vision

We accomplish our mission by:

  • Providing hospitality.
  • Supporting patients in their healing through a holistic approach.
  • Empowering individuals on their path toward stability.
  • Creating community.

For patients stories, please click here and watch the documentary below. To learn more about our services, click here.

An essential component of our efforts is the dignified sharing of patient stories, honoring each individual’s unique experience and perspective. In 2023-2024, several patients participated in a documentary project, offering an authentic glimpse into their journeys and showcasing our mission in action.
