Scattered-Site Permanent Supportive Housing Program: In 2017, through a contract with the DC Dept. of Human Services, OAH began providing housing units in apartment buildings accompanied by supportive services throughout Washington, DC. For clients under the scattered site PSHP, OAH case managers provide intensive mobile case management. All supportive services include supportive counseling, crisis intervention, financial management and assistance in receiving public benefits and referrals to resources and/or programs. OAH also connects residents with off-site services that include mental health and assertive community treatment, alcohol and drug abuse counseling, employment counseling, day programs, volunteer opportunities, self-help groups, medical treatment and food pantries. OAH served 110 clients in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019.
The Dunbar: The Dunbar was the first female-only single-site permanent supportive housing (PSH) project for women unaccompanied by children. The Dunbar begain housing residents in the Fall of 2009. Each woman has her own efficiency apartment with a full kitchen and bathroom. The building has three wheelchair accessible units, and a community room with shared phones, television, computers, and space for meetings and get-togethers. The availability of an on-site certified Peer Specialist and Case Managers with whom clients can consult, arrange benefits, and request access to mobile treatment teams, helps to ensure accessibility to supportive services at a level and pace determined by the residents. The Dunbar houses 18 residents.

From its conception, Open Arms has stressed the provision of quality living spaces with full bath and kitchen for each resident; shared common space; customization of units to meet the special mobility and other needs of residents; a safe and secure building to call home; and effective property management that keeps each unit a healthy and responsive place to live.
