Description:

Pep Rally for Peace in the Streets (PRPIS), Power Jam

Music Alliance, Department of Human Services (DHS), and Busboys and Poets Anacostia is honored to

present PRPIS 3rd Annual “D.C.’s MLK Family Day” 2020 commemorative event to be held at Busboys

and Poets Anacostia between 6 pm – 9 pm. This event will feature the distribution of house warming gift packages for families who are

transitioning from shelters. Last year, more than 1,000 families exited the shelter system with support from the Department of Human

Services (DHS) along with the community-based organizations in the homeless continuum of care with

whom DHS partners.

Pep Rally for Peace in the Streets (PRPIS) has partnered with the Department of Human Services, and

several other District-based regional and corporate sponsors to recognize some of these families and

provide them with start-up packages to support their efforts to maintain housing stability.
