Dear Friends,
In the 63 years since Woodley House’s founding, we have faced head-on the challenges and triumphs of serving adults in the District with mental health disorders, facilitating their recovery and helping them lead lives with dignity.
In 2022, Woodley House is poised to grow exponentially, doubling the number of people we serve by 2030. With nearly 1,700 adults with mental health disorders currently unhoused in the District, we can no longer stand on the sidelines and watch our neighbors suffer.
Woodley House has the skills and tools to help address the longstanding structural racism and disparities inherent in both the city’s housing market and the availability of mental health services. Woodley House has helped close to 20,000 men and women over the past 63 years, providing a welcoming home and therapeutic, family-like environment in which people can work toward recovery and greater independence. That core of our mission is what we will never cease doing.
We are so grateful for your support and your participation in this community.
Ann Chauvin
Executive Director
