Their long-term mission: At Wesley Housing, we believe no one should have to choose between paying the rent and feeding their families. That’s why we provide residential services that encourage economic stability and upward mobility through after-school programs, adult learning classes, ESOL, summer camp, school supply support, and employment services.
Our story doesn’t end with providing services. We also ensure our residents live a safe place they can be proud to live and call home. With over 20 properties and more on the way, we are proud to be a part of and support the Northern Virginia and DC communities.
