The Family Place & Public Charter School jobs and careers

About The Family Place & Public Charter School

The Family Place has helped promote stability and well-being for low income families in Washington DC by offering education, critical resources, and social support for more than 40 years. Most of our clients are mothers with young children under the age of five. All classes and services are offered at no cost to families. The Family Place provides a welcoming, multi-cultural environment, with programs that help meet emergency needs; provide education and training; and offer access to information and other social services. We put the needs of our clients first by striving to develop programming that is both relevant and practical. Within the comforts of the Mount Pleasant row house we have owned since 1986, participants not only find access to important services, but also form mutually supportive friendships. And as we assist families in solving problems, we help them to build on their own strengths so that they can succeed independently.
