Support LSSNCA Services
For more than 100 years, Lutheran Social Services of the National Capital Area (LSSNCA) has welcomed newcomers in the D.C. metro area, accompanying families, youth, children, and individuals along their resettlement journey as they build new lives.
Donate In-Kind Items
LSSNCA provides free essential goods to neighbors in need through our "Shopping with Dignity" program, excess pre-owned clothing and accessories are given a second chance through Dignity Thrift, and textiles are given a new life and kept out of landfills through ReFiber.
Advocate for Neighbors
Join LSSNCA in advancing humane policies and programs for our community.
Become a Foster Parent
Our foster care programs continue seeking new loving homes for children in need in Maryland, Northern Virginia, and other neighborhoods in the D.C. metro area. Spanish-speaking families and communities are most welcome.
Rent to a Refugee Family
LSSNCA finds housing for recently resettled families and individuals in Northern Virginia and Maryland. We're always looking to build new relationships with independent landlords, local property management companies, and national real estate partners.
Employ a Refugee
LSSNCA partners with local employers to assess employment needs and provide qualified, prescreened, motivated applicants.
Become a Mentor or Volunteer
Volunteers support LSSNCA's work to welcome new neighbors, serve neighbors in need, and build a community of well-being where people thrive.
