03Why we exist
DC is losing family-sized housing. We're the coordinator that holds the line.
Vouchers, TOPA, LIHTC, nonprofit tax exemptions — the policy tools exist on paper. They fail in practice when no one runs the placements. Birdie's House does that work.
Every family we place is a family DC doesn't lose. Every placement keeps a family-sized home in family hands.
