About the company
Abused And Homeless Children's Refuge Inc., doing business as Alternative House, is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Vienna, Virginia, that receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient to deliver housing and supportive services for runaway and homeless youth ages 16 to 22. The organization does not hold federal contracts; all federal funding flows through federal grant programs administered by the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Alternative House's federal funding portfolio spans four grantor agencies and 27 total awards, with customer concentration split evenly between two primary sources. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families and the Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development each account for ten awards from the visible award history. The organization operates as a prime recipient on 96% of its awards and as a sub-recipient on one award (a July 2025 sub-grant from Fairfax County for a re-engagement center providing career readiness, case management, mentoring, and supportive services to eligible youth). Combined obligated federal dollars across all awards total $12.7 million over a twenty-plus-year grant history.
Alternative House's primary funding source is the HUD Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), which accounts for recurring annual awards supporting permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services to homeless youth. Recent CoC grants include a $268,953 project grant awarded December 1, 2025, with completion by November 30, 2026, and a $227,216 award from December 1, 2024, completing November 30, 2025. The organization also holds multi-year grants under the Department of Health and Human Services Administration on Children, Youth and Families Second Story programs — including a five-year Transitional Living Program grant awarded September 30, 2024, completing September 29, 2029, and two additional Second Story project grants (Young Mothers and Teens in Crisis) awarded September 30, 2022, and completing September 29, 2025. Funded activities encompass case management, life skills training, education and employment assistance, counseling, and Homeless Management Information Systems support. Activity has been episodic, with one award in 2021 and 2023, three awards in 2022, and two awards in 2024 and 2025; only one award is scheduled for completion within the next twenty-four months.
