Serve DC Mayor’s Office on Volunteerism

Serve DC the Mayor’s Office on Volunteerism is proud to launch our new online resource database, Serve DC Connects Your Source For Addressing Community Needs: www.servedcconnects.org with our new instructional video for first time users.

Serve DC Connects is an online resource that links District of Columbia residents to organizations, services and programs that provide assistance to veterans, military servicemen and women, and their families; children with disabilities; and individuals with HIV/AIDS.

Serve DC Connects also connects local community-based organizations and service providers with their counterparts across the District to facilitate efficient and appropriate client referrals and information.

Serve DC Connects covers a wide range of needs, including: advocacy, education, employment, food and nutrition resources, health and social services, housing assistance, and legal services. Serve DC Connects also provides an Urgent Needs section that lists service providers and organizations that can assist individuals with immediate, critical needs, including: housing assistance, legal services, and food and nutrition.

Individuals can search Serve DC Connects based on location or population category and can further limit their search by selecting subcategories, including but not limited to: employment, food and nutrition, housing, health and social services and more.

Serve DC Connects’ handy map feature lets you search for population-specific resources by address, and all listings include Metro rail and bus line information, allowing individuals to select resources in the most convenient locations possible.

Serve DC Connects currently host 101 resources and are looking to continue to add new resources to this resource database.
