Ending Homelessness

NCC continues to work to end homelessness in our community through walking alongside individuals or familys as they rebuild their life. As well as advocate for systems and programs that make ending homelessness possible. There are plenty of ways for you to join us such as outreach, making meals, one on one relationships, and advocacy. Serve for the day or join someone's journey. 

Ways to get involved:

• Inservice (Sundays) is a weekly outreach group that engages people experiencing homelessness right where they are. With lunch or a snack as a tool we seek to build relationships. This can look like praying together, connecting to services, or simply having a conversation. We meet every Sunday at 10:50am either at Ebenezers Coffeehouse or the Capitol Turnaround depending on the week. For more information email Cory at [email protected]. We are always looking for help with meals. Check out Take Them A Meal to sign up. 

• The Living Room (Wednesdays)  is a small group that brings people together from all walks of life to fellowship and study the scriptures over a meal. Through the breaking of bread, we have the opportunity to follow the model of Jesus by building relationships with people who are often forgotten or overlooked. While all are welcome, many individuals in this small group have found themselves living on the streets, in a local shelter, or as part of the working poor. The Living Room is every Wednesday from 6-7pm at Ebenezers Coffeehouse. For more information email [email protected]. We are always looking for help with meals. Check out Take Them A Meal to sign up. 

• The Way Home Campaign (Event Based) - No one should be homeless. No one should be homeless for years. The Way Home is a campaign to end chronic homelessness in the District of Columbia. On any given night in the District, there are nearly 1,700 individuals and families living on the streets and in shelters who are considered chronically homeless  – they have been homeless for years and struggle with significant issues like mental illness and chronic health conditions.
