Mission: Incorporated in January 2000, in response to community-wide cries for solutions to issues regarding housing, counseling, training and employment, the All Faith Consortium has earned a reputation as a community leader in developing programs and facilitating solutions to help empower veterans and their families to become self-sufficient. With an extensive network of veteran-owned businesses, faith-based and grass-root community organizations that originated in Washington, DC and now is expanding throughout the country, All Faith Consortium’s mission is: “to use innovative approaches in providing American Veterans and other needy citizens with the necessary resources to achieve permanent self-sufficiency in the areas of employment, training, health, literacy, housing, counseling, and other life sustaining benefits.”
Programs: A demonstrative deliverable of our continuum is our veteran domiciliary. In the Spring of 2009, the All Faith Consortium opened and dedicated a brand new state-of-the-art housing, training, and small business development facility (the Qi-Life Center) in the Washington, D.C. community for disabled veterans as a result of sponsorship from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Federal Reserve, and FEMA. Given the sensitive nature of this mission, AFC's exclusive focus is on providing the highest quality services and support through skilled, knowledgeable, and courteous staff and partnerships. We have maintained a lean, but efficient management structure that minimizes unintended expenditures. We have been successful by offering value added services in using the latest confluence of human services proven best practices, cutting-edge technologies, leveraging an extensive network of in-kind linkages, and a seemingly forgotten measures of respect that is worthy of those for whom we are privileged to serve.
