Modified Government Operations

While DC Government will begin to modify its operations starting Monday, March 16, in order to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we'll continue to deliver essential services and keep the majority of our systems and services operating.

COVID-19 Rental Assistance Programs

The Department of Housing and Community Development has developed a rental assistance program to assist residents with paying their rent during the COVID-19 public health emergency.

Citywide Challenge

Housing is a citywide challenge that requires a citywide solution. We are building 36,0000 new homes - 12k of them affordable - by 2025 across all 8 wards.

Recovery For Small Businesses

DC Government is proud to support small businesses with a range of resources to help navigate these uncertain times. These resources can assist small businesses in tackling the important and immediate challenges before them.

DC Agencies to Identify Ways to Fulfill Mayor’s Housing Goals

Recently, Mayor Muriel Bowser signed a Mayor’s Order on housing directing District agencies to identify new policies, tools, and initiatives to begin fulfilling her bold goal of creating 36,000 new housing units, 12,000 of them affordable, by 2025.
