CCNV

The Community for Creative Non-Violence (CCNV), located at 425 2nd St NW in Washington, DC, works to protect the rights of people experiencing homelessness and poverty. Its mission centers on access to basic necessities, including food, shelter, clothing, and medical care, while advocating for underserved people and supporting preparation for re-entry into mainstream society.

CCNV operates the Federal City Shelter and provides clothing and shoes to residents through donations. The organization also describes food donations supporting meals for shelter residents, with surplus clothing sometimes sold through The Treasure Chest Thrift Store when designated by donors.

People seeking assistance can review CCNV’s official assistance information and consult NHREA’s federal assistance resources for additional guidance. Visit the official source to confirm current program details.
