About Us

Founded in 1988, FACETS is a local charity that opens doors by helping people meet their emergency shelter, food, and medical needs, as well as helping them gain safe, sustainable and permanent housing. We work with them to end the cycle of poverty through educational, life skills and career counseling programs. Our professional staff manages a comprehensive range of programs and services and a volunteer base of several thousand.  As a founding and active partner in the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Partnership to Prevent and End Homelessness, FACETS is committed to working collaboratively in the county-wide effort to help our neighbors in need of safe and affordable housing. We invite you to be a part of our vision of a Fairfax County where EVERYONE has a place to call HOME.
