The first Mondloch House opened in 1978 and was the first homeless shelter in Fairfax County. It was named in memory of Bob Mondloch, the first treasurer of New Hope Housing. This program served up to 8 adults at one time.
In 2004, the program was redesigned to serve chronically homeless adults. Two years later, this program was awarded Best Housing Program at the 2006 Governor’s Housing Conference.
