The club is made up of players associated with Neighbors Consejo, which offers solutions to ensure that services and programs are available to the Hipanic/Latino individuals and families in Washington, D.C. Specifically, Neighbors Consejo offers substance abuse treatment and transitional housing.
The team is Coached by Dan, Chris and Spencer Helfrich, and Chris Parkinson.
In addition, the National Coalition for the Homeless and Street Sense D.C. are both integral partners in recruitment, management and awareness of the Street Soccer D.C. team, as well as Street Soccer USA overall. This the third cup that National Coalition for the Homeless and Street Sense have partnered with SSUSA to help organize, and without their aid the event would not have been able to reach the level of success it has.
