Champions of Dignity, Respect and Autonomy Since Day One
Breaking the Cycle of Poverty and Homelessness for Over 50 Years
Since 1970, SOME has been a care provider and a beacon of hope to DC residents, including individuals, families, senior citizens, veterans and those affected by physical or mental health challenges. We meet their immediate and long-term needs through our comprehensive approach to health and wellness, known as Whole Person Care. By nurturing the complete human experience, we help our clients create happier and healthier futures for themselves and their families.
The Need
DC has one of the highest poverty rates in the country. Currently, there are 5,111 men, women and children experiencing homelessness in our nation’s capital, and the issue is particularly bad for Black and Latinx residents.

Appreciation for our shared humanity and our sense of community has been a central pillar of our operations for over 50 years.
