Mount Rainier, MD (Washington, DC area)
Junia House
| Our Loretto Volunteer house is located just outside the border of Washington, DC. A neighborhood with a sense of community, Mount Rainier is a small town near the big city, and is home to a racially, culturally and economically diverse population of families. Mount Rainier hosts a bicycle co-op and the region’s best food co-op, as well as New Ways Ministry, a Loretto Volunteer placement founded by Loretto sister, Jeannine Gramick SL. |
At Junia House, five volunteers share a four-bedroom house. All volunteers take public transit to work, but they share a program car for groceries, retreats and local outings. The house is located four blocks from the bus that takes volunteers downtown, and is just under a mile from the West Hyattsville metro station.

Historically an Irish American neighborhood, today it is home to a range of immigrant communities. The house is convenient to the 7 subway line.
