The InterFaith Conference of Metropolitan Washington (IFC) updates the Emergency Food, Shelter and Health Care Directory (EFSHCD) almost every year for use by congregations, non-profit organizations, government agencies and individuals in their work with persons in need. Youll find more information about the IFC on the inside front cover of this Directory as well as a listing of our member groups on the inside back cover. The EFSHCD is divided into the following sections: I. II. III. IV. V. VI. VII. Emergency Food Meal Services Shelters Day Shelters Medical Resources Additional Resources Hotlines, Referrals and Social Services Numbers

The agencies within each section are listed according to the governmental jurisdiction in which they are located to help you find the nearest resources. Each agency is listed in the category they specified as their most general service. However, each agency usually offers additional services that may well also be of help. The editors encourage users to view the website provided by many of the agencies before making contacts. Most agencies require that the person(s) in need be referred by a social services agency or congregation. Section VII: Hotlines, Referrals and Social Services Numbers provides a

comprehensive list of agencies that can provide appropriate referrals, if needed, to help meet the needs of these persons. We at the InterFaith Conference hope that this resource will be a blessing to all those who use it and to all those who benefit from their service. Rev. Clark Lobenstine, Executive Director Additional Copies of the EFSHCD are free! Governmental offices get their copies from the Council of Governments. United Way agencies should contact the United Way office. Others should call our office (202/2346300) before coming by to pick up your copies for your staff and/or key volunteers or send us a selfaddressed envelope with the postage required (see our website,
