Our 2030 Strategic Plan

Enough for Everyone: Our Vision for More Justice Housing

Following a meaningful celebration of 50 years of mission – along with our own Jubilee Year – we are pleased to share the strategic direction for this season of our work, Enough for Everyone: Our Vision for More Justice Housing. With this plan, we believe the neighborhoods of Adams Morgan, Mount Pleasant, and Columbia Heights will be a place where residents are engaged, economic mobility is realized, and people are welcomed home.

Mission and Vision

Our 2030 plan is driven by our shared commitment to advance Jubilee Housing’s mission and vision:

OUR MISSION

To build diverse, compassionate communities that create opportunities for everyone to thrive.

OUR VISION

A joyful community where access to resources and opportunities are available to all people and where people live out these opportunities in a supportive environment.


From Our Founding

It all started in 1973 with the purchase of two dilapidated apartment buildings in the heart of Washington, D.C.’s Adams Morgan neighborhood. In the five decades since, Jubilee has grown and expanded with the neighborhood.

Through our signature Justice Housing® framework, Jubilee provides access to consistently high-quality and affordable housing, healthcare, education, and the arts.

50 years after our founding, we are more than just housing and more than just a community nonprofit. We have proven what is possible when each community resident is welcomed with access to the person-centric supportive resources they need to thrive.


To Our Future

In this next chapter of our journey, we will scale the impact of our efforts, further demonstrating the power of community development that centers thriving for all.

  • We will joyfully advance and scale ecosystems for thriving in our community while continuing to counter and correct discriminatory systems and practices that distance people from well-being.
  • We will expand opportunities for individuals and families in this community to prosper.
  • Most importantly, we will keep inviting people into this sought-after community, believing we all have a place here.

Jubilee Housing is entering the most important period of its history. We must now pursue the difficult task of fulfilling current obligations while building the resources—from talent to finances—that will help us succeed.


Join Us

This next phase of our growth serves as a promise of what’s possible when there is enough of everything for everyone.

As we come together in service of this plan, we are and always will be more than just neighbors. Together, we are advancing a community that works for and benefits us all.
