H.O.O.P.S. for
Youth House
The H.O.O.P.S. for Youth House will provide safe, stable housing and supportive services for youth who deserve more than temporary solutions.
Why Housing MattersHousing stability is foundational to health, education, and long-term independence. Without it, young people face barriers that compound over time.
The H.O.O.P.S. for Youth House is designed to interrupt that cycle.
Why This Expansion Matters
Every young mother deserves a safe place to raise her child.
The H.O.O.P.S. for Youth House is more than a building — it’s a foundation for stability, education, and economic independence.
Healthy Babies Project is expanding this home to serve more pregnant and parenting youth across Washington, D.C. The new space will provide secure housing, on-site case management, and peer support for young families striving to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness.
