Tem Fagbemi

I am a Program Manager and Consultant currently living in Hyattsville, MD.

I serve as the Program Manager for the District Alliance for Safe Housing and a Domestic Violence Consultant for H.A.N.D.S LLC. I received a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice and a minor in Sociology from Southeastern University, and have a passion for social justice, creating equity, and promoting nonviolent communities.

I am an accomplished Program Manager with extensive experience in Domestic Violence services. With roots in direct service, I have been working in the movement since 2009, when I began as a Family Support Worker with Child and Family Services. Since that time, I have had the opportunity to work at all levels of the Domestic Violence services, including education and outreach, direct services, and now program management. With my commitment, I impacted the lives of over 1,500 families within the Washington Metropolitan area.

Currently at District Alliance for Safe Housing, I serve as a subject matter expert on Domestic Violence with interagency collaborations including with Metropolitan Police Department, Department of Human Services, Washington Hospital Center, Crime Victims Compensation, DC Child and Family Services, DC Mayor’s office, Homeless Prevention sites, and other Domestic Violence agencies in the Washington Metropolitan area. Additionally, I provide expertise on housing and homeless resources in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, and manage overall creation of technical assistance materials to increase trauma-based service.
