FAQs

What should I do if I see a homeless person hanging around my neighborhood?
It is not against the law to be homeless. Homeless people have a right to walk freely in any public place in the city. If you are concerned that the person may need help, ask if you can be of assistance. If the individual wants assistance, you can call the Friendship Place staff person in charge of outreach at 202-364-1419 from 8:30 to 4:30 Monday through Friday. If the person is clearly drunk or drugged or abusive, call 911 and inform the police. They will send a team to evaluate the person.
