The Little Blue House has a single core mission: to foster the development of vulnerable and at risk children and youth in the District in a safe, stable, and healthy environment.

The Little Blue House was founded by private citizens in 1991. For almost 20 years, we have been working with children and families in the DC area. We work with families to end the cycle of poverty and the dependence on government welfare.

LBH strives to obtain specific outcomes for participants in our youth-related programss: children are ready for school (i.e. to attend on time, every day, and participate in learning); children are able to invest in trusting relationships, based on their own growing ability to be responsible and accountable (and recognize that behavior in others); and children are able to articulate thoughts and feelings about their environment (neighborhood), and to understand and choose among positive and negative influences.

Our parent program connects TANF-eligible parents with peer mentors to raise knowledge and skills for early childhood development, education and parenting.

What's happening now at the LBH?

Our Out-of-School Time Program is in full swing. Students meet with our staff after school for homework, tutoring and fun, safe activities.

We are changing the life of a student one subject at time!
