Mission

The mission of the Temple Hills Fresh Start, Inc. (THFS) transition house PERMANENTLY CLOSED.

Vision

Temple Hills Fresh Start housing PERMANENTLY CLOSED

History

The idea for Temple Hills Fresh Start, Inc. was born in 1999 by several individuals whose hearts went out to those who were distressed with no home or support network. 

In 2001, the doors opened for single room occupancy (SRO) housing for individuals experiencing homelessness. The facility provided temporary transitional housing for homeless women. The residents had individual rooms and share common areas. The temporary housing located in Temple Hills, MD would move from SRO to transitional housing. 

By 2020, this group officially formed a nonprofit where women experiencing homelessness could have a chance at a ‘fresh start.’ To date, twenty (20) formerly homeless individuals have gained their independence into permanent housing.

About Us

We are dedicated to breaking the cycle of homelessness for those we serve by providing temporary transitional housing (6 weeks – 24 months) and supportive services to enable residents to achieve and sustain social and financial stability in the DMV metropolitan area.
