DAR Al-Hijrah Islamic Center

DAR Al-Hijrah Islamic Center, doing business as DAR Al Hijrah, is a nonprofit organization based in Falls Church, Virginia that operates as a federal grant sub-recipient, delivering refugee resettlement and public health support services to vulnerable immigrant populations. The organization holds no federal prime contracts but has served as a sub-recipient on five federal grants since 2023, with combined potential value of $15.7 million across thirty-two total awards dating back to 2008.

DAR Al Hijrah's recent federal work centers on refugee assistance and vaccination equity. The organization received four sub-grant awards from the Virginia Department of Social Services in September 2024 totaling refugee support services under the Cash and Medical Assistance program for Afghan and Ukrainian populations. Earlier, in April 2023, DAR Al Hijrah sub-received a federal grant from the National Foundation for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention supporting community-based organizations to increase equitable vaccination coverage. These represent the organization's most recent federal grant activity and signal its niche in refugee resettlement and immigrant health equity services.

Customer concentration is narrow. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office Office of Leasing anchors 44% of awards by count (nine awards, $5.2 million combined potential value), reflecting DAR Al Hijrah's historical footprint as a lessor of nonresidential buildings under GSA's Basic Ordering Agreement GS11B02021 — a vehicle carrying twenty-five task orders valued at $14.6 million. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families and HHS Centers for Disease Control and Prevention account for the remaining active federal relationship. Award activity is cyclical: twelve awards in 2009 and eleven in 2010 preceded a decade-long gap before one award in 2019, then four awards in 2024, reflecting a shift from real-estate leasing toward human services and public health programming. Combined dollars obligated total $1.7 million (11% of potential value), indicating modest spend-down against the award ceiling.
