SOME is a faith-inspired organization focusing on our shared humanity and sense of community. We believe all our neighbors deserve dignity, respect, and a path forward, regardless of who they are or where they’re from. Join us as we work to end poverty and homelessness by serving, empowering, and elevating those who need us most.
SOME provides material aid and comfort to our vulnerable neighbors in the District, helping them break the cycle of poverty and homelessness through programs and services that save lives, improve lives, and help transform lives of individuals and families, their communities, and the systems and structures that affect them.
SOME offers a range of services to help you meet basic needs, receive healthcare and other treatment, train for a living-wage career, obtain safe and affordable housing, and more.
Since 1970, SOME has been a care provider and a beacon of hope to residents in our nation’s capital. Our services are available to individuals, families, senior citizens, veterans and those affected by physical or mental illness. Every day, we are working to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness through our comprehensive approach.
Meeting the immediate and long-term needs of our most underserved neighbors is only possible if we know exactly how we’re measuring up to our ambitious goals. We are rigorous about data collection, and we continuously evaluate the impact of our housing services on our clients, their communities and the systems that affect their daily lives.
SOME is proud to operate in all eight Wards in the District and in Hampshire County, West Virginia. To maintain the privacy of our residents and clients, we do not publicly release the addresses of our programming sites.
