Shatterproof is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to ending the addiction crisis in the United States.
We start with the basic essentials of homeless services: a meal, a clean bed, warm clothing and any other critical care they need to begin recovering from homelessness, addiction and poverty.
Once their basic needs are met, we focus on their long-term recovery. Our Life Transformation programs give men and women the practical tools and training, and spiritual guidance, to overcome their struggles for a stable, independent tomorrow.
Exodus Ministries is a 501 (c) (3) non-denominational Christian organization established in 1985. We serve mothers from all ethnic backgrounds who have demonstrated a willingness to make positive changes in their life. These women are dealing with the residual pain of having been separated from their children for a long period of time and do not have the immediate financial resources to sustain their families. Exodus helps them and their families to become productive members of society by serving their spiritual and physical needs.

Miriam’s Kitchen has an urgent and audacious mission and vision: to end chronic homelessness in DC. Every 3-5 years we update our strategic plan to drive our work and help achieve our vision. We know that we cannot achieve our mission without many others involved. Due to this, our strategic plans are adaptable so that we can be flexible and responsive to key stakeholders – from our guests to the DC Interagency Council on Homelessness and their city-wide plan to end homelessness.
In order to focus the work of each department, included in our strategic plan are specific priorities for the organization. The Strategic Plan and Priorities guide the development of our measures and annual targets in our Balanced Scorecard.
The Shea Therapeutic Riding Center, located in San Juan Capistrano, began in 1978 as The Orange County Riding Center. It was founded by Nancy and Derek Lewis for their son, Michael, who was born with cerebral palsy. Because social worker and equestrienne, Fran Joswick, was the Center’s first instructor and executive director, the Center was renamed the Fran Joswick Therapeutic Riding Center. In 2001, the J.F. Shea Co., Inc. donated eight acres of land for a permanent facility and the Center was again renamed as the J.F. Shea Therapeutic Riding Center.
Accredited at the “premier” level by the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International (PATH Intl.), The Shea Center is internationally recognized for its excellence in therapeutic programs. It is also is a therapeutic riding training facility drawing interns and students from around the world.

The Center now serves over 1,200 participants each year and provides more than 14,000 hours of client services annually. Utilizing 23 horses and the assistance of more than 800 community volunteers, the Center has grown to be an organization with a $4 million annual operating budget.
The Center’s team consists of 28 full-time and 17 part-time and contract staff members. All instructors and therapy professionals who perform evaluations, assessments, and create individualized treatment programs for their clients are PATH Intl. certified.
Over 75 distinct disabilities are addressed through a variety of programs that include physical, occupational, and speech therapies.
