• How to start

  Housing-counseling intake

  Call 202-547-4747 or TTY 202-547-2657; staff asks about the requested help and connects eligible clients to a suitable counselor when resources permit.

  Published intake flow; it explicitly depends on eligibility and resource availability, so no appointment is guaranteed.

• Who may qualify

  Primary service focus

  The program focuses on long-term District residents with low-to-moderate incomes.

  Published focus, not a complete eligibility determination. ULS asks prospective clients to call so staff can assess need and eligibility.
