Mission:
Since 1973, Jubilee Housing has fulfilled its mission in the Adams Morgan area of Washington, DC of providing safe, affordable rental housing for people with low to very low-incomes. Jubilee Housing is more than “bricks and mortar” it is a context for people who are living in profound poverty to have the opportunity to rebuild their lives. It is a place where the basic human need for a home is met for those whose income levels have excluded them from most other housing options except living in a shelter, which is certainly not home in any life-giving way. The housing offered by Jubilee enables more than 850 individuals and families to maintain a home in a supportive and caring environment. In addition to providing stable, long-term housing, Jubilee Housing also offers services that encourage its resident’s self development, self sufficiency and active participation in all areas of residential, community and civic life. Staff counselors work daily with residents by offering long-term support, crisis intervention, community building and referrals to Jubilee’s sister service agencies.
