People living in, working in, and visiting European and Asian capitals take it for granted that, when they need to go, they will find a clean, safe, available public restroom nearby.

This, unfortunately, is not the case in Washington, DC, our nation’s Capital. If you are in downtown DC and urgently have to go, you will have a hard time finding a public restroom nearby. Even if there is one, the hours are limited and there are no signs to tell you where it is located.

Some private restaurants and food chains, might let you in. However, increasingly they are limiting access to patrons. And, if you are walking in Washington DC late at night and urgently have to go, you may be in big trouble.

Chances are you will have to walk a half-mile to three miles to find a clean, safe, restroom that is open; that is, if you know where the few restrooms in DC open 24/7 are located.

The People for Fairness Coalition (PFC) — established in April 2008 with the objective of finding housing for everyone in Washington DC through advocacy, outreach and peer mentoring — has taken up the challenge of ensuring that DC, like European & Asian capitals, has clean, safe public restroom that are available when needed.

 

To this end, July 2014 we established the PFFC Downtown DC Public Restroom Initiative.

Our goal is to convince the DC government to install clean, safe public restrooms available to everyone in needed areas of DC.

[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]

Our strategy is to:

  1. raise consciousness of the need
  2. educate on the problem and who benefits
  3. build support through advocacy

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]

To date we have:

  1. carried out research to document the problem in DC,  carried out a feasibility study to identify options for clean, safe public restrooms appropriate for DC; did studies of two options, Portland Loo and Community Toilet Scheme to identify take aways for Washington DC
  2. delivered over 70 presentations to: DC government officials, DC Council Members/staff, ANCs, BIDs, churches, community associations, social advocacy organizations;
  3. inspired and informed the introduction in April 2017 by four DC Council members of Bill 22-0223, Public Restroom Facilities Installation & Promotion Act of 2017 which became Law 22-280 on April 11, 2019, and  and as of Oct. 1, 2019 was funded under the DC FY 2020 budget;
  4. appeared in the written media (Washington Post, WTOP, Greater Washington, DC Currents, DC Line, Curbed DC, Street Sense), on radio (KojoNnamdi Show); and television (WUSA9, FOX5news, WJLA)

Latest News

  1. On April 23, 2021 Mayor Bowser issued a report on Recent Incidents of Urination and Defecation.

This report, prepared by the Department of General Services, summarizes information obtained through a questionnaire issued to ANCs, BIDs, and Clean Teams asking them to identify locations within their boundaries where a standalone public restroom is needed.  It also provides information from DC Government agencies on areas of DC where there have been reports of significant amounts of urination and defecation.

2.  On May 23, 2021 the Mayor named a Working Group tasked with determining the  standalone public restroom model and two locations where it will be installed under the first pilot. The Working Group had its first of 6 monthly meetings on June 17, 2021 with plans to present its report in December 2021.

The Working Group, facilitated by a representative from the Deputy Mayor’s Office for Health & Human Services is composed of representatives from: DHS, DOH, DDOT, DGS, DPW, MPD, DC Water, Miriams Kitchen, Unity Health Care and an urban planner from the Downtown BID

3.  Funds have been made available in the FY 2022 budget to implement the Community Incentives Pilot, patterned on the successful Community Toilet Scheme implemented by Boroughs throughout England.

DSLBD, tasked with identifying a BID to carry out this pilot, has resumed its preparations for implementing this pilot, put on hold in March 2020 with the onset of COVID 19.

How We Got Started

Janet inspecting a restroom
Janet inspecting a restroom

It all began in July of 2014 when, at one or our weekly PFC meetings, a member raised the issue. Although it was not central to our objective of finding housing for everyone who needs it in DC, we decide it was important for us to take it on: everyone, including those without housing, need to have safe, clean, restrooms available any time of day or night.

We started by learning from the experiences of other cities in the US and Canada that have had recently been successful in installing and maintaining public restrooms that are clean, safe, and available 24/7. With models and lessons in hand, in November 2014 we established our Downtown Washington DC Public Restroom Initiative. We formed a committee composed of five passionate members of PFC who are determined to stay the course until clean, safe restrooms available 24/7 are installed in needed areas of downtown DC. We have been meeting weekly since November 2014 and carrying out activities in between.

[/vc_column_text][/et_single][et_single icon=”no-icon” tab_title=”Inventory” tab_id=”1489078791438-2-8″][vc_column_text]

Inventory of facilities with restrooms in five areas of downtown DC

Our first task was to determine whether downtown DC has a problem. Between January and March of 2015 we selected five areas of downtown DC that have a large population of individuals without housing and high levels of pedestrian traffic. We visited 85 restrooms in private establishments in these areas in order to find out whether we could use their restrooms without purchasing something. If they let us in, we: wrote down the hours the establishment was open, and we entered the restroom in order to see if the restroom was clean and safe. We also did an internet search in order to identify restrooms in DC that are open 24/7.

Our analysis concluded that downtown Washington DC does have a problem. Half of the establishments that we visited limited access to patrons and those that were open to the public are increasingly putting locks and combinations on their bathroom doors. There are only 3 clean, safe restrooms open 24/7 in all of Washington DC. If you have to go urgently and don’t know the area well you wouldn’t know where to go as there is no signage leading you to these restrooms. For more information see the 3-page summary of the report or the 14 page full report.

Our accomplishments

Research

  • Carried out feasibility study to identify lessons learned/best practices from other cities in the US and elswhere that have been successful in installing and maintaining clean, safe public restrooms available to everyone 24/7
  • Conducted annual inventories of 85 private facilities in 5 areas of DC with high levels of pedestrian traffic to identify those willing to admit individuals who aren’t patrons. In 2015, 50% (43 out of 85) permitted access to non-patrons. This dropped to 33% (28) in 2016 and 13% (11) in 2017.
  • Did comprehensive search to identify public facilities off the Mall with restrooms open to the public. As of May 2018, there were five open during the day with limited hours and no signs; and two open 24/7 again with no signs.
  • Reviewed the experience of four Boroughs in England that have implemented the Community Toilet scheme and prepared a report with insights have can be helpful when the DC government pilots incentives to businesses to open their restrooms to the public.
  • Sent questionnaire to 28 cities in the US and Canada that have installed Portland Loo in order to learn from their experiences.  Full report and summary provide key findings and take aways for Washington DC should it decide to install one or more Portland Loos.

Served as inspiration for Bill 22-0223, Public Restroom Facilities Installation and Promotion Act of 2018 passed by the DC Council in December, 2018 

  • Bill 22-0223, introduced in April 2017, directs DC government agencies to (1) identify 2 sites in the District that are suitable for installing clean, save public restrooms available 24/7; (2) establish a program to provide incentives to private facilities to open their restrooms to the public.
  • Hearing held on Bill 22-0223 on January 10, 2017 with 13 individuals testifying from various perspectives on why clean, safe public restrooms are needed.
  • Bill 22-0223 was marked up by the Committee on Transportation & Environment and the Committee on Health, then passed to the DC Council of the Whole where it was passed by two consecutive unanimous votes on December 4 and 18,2018.

WRITTEN ENDORSEMENTS:

FAIR BUDGET COALITION

The DC Fair Budget Coalition is proud to endorse the People for Fairness Coalition’s Downtown DC Public Restroom Initiative. FBC strongly supports the great work of PFFC, particularly in organizing people experiencing housing instability and homelessness to advocate for themselves and their peers.

Every human being should have a dignified place to relieve themselves. People experiencing homelessness have to deal with many obstacles to manage their basic human functions and often face discrimination and abuse when trying to find a facility to use. They also may have unnecessary encounters with law enforcement or expose themselves to dangerous situations when trying to take care of their bodies. For women experiencing homelessness, access to sanitary napkins and tampons are already limited, and they need a place to safely deal with their monthly menstrual cycles. A downtown public restroom is a common sense and inexpensive way to give people a place to relieve themselves in safety and in dignity.

POTOMAC COMMUNICATIONS GROUP

As a business that has operated at numerous locations throughout downtown D.C. for more than 35 years, Potomac Communications Group wholeheartedly endorses the goals of the People for Fairness Coalition’s Downtown DC Public Restroom Initiative.

We agree that access to public restrooms is a human right and that denying access is not only a denial of one’s rights but also an affront to human dignity. Those who live in and visit our nation’s capital, and in particular families with young children, pregnant women, the elderly, those in need of permanent housing and others who are in any way “restroom challenged,” deserve access to clean, publicly available toilet facilities 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The initiative’s goals will also help the city’s business community by making our streets and sidewalks cleaner and safer.

We believe that as one of the country’s foremost tourist destinations, Washington, D.C. should set an example for the rest of the city and indeed the rest of the world in this regard.

CNHED

The Coalition for Nonprofit Housing & Economic Development (CNHED) supports the People for Fairness Coalition’s Downtown Restroom Initiative. Public restrooms are a benefit for everyone — residents, shoppers, international and domestic visitors, and the less fortunate, including people who are challenged to find access to safe and sanitary restroom facilities.

MIRIAM’S KITCHEN

The People for Fairness Coalition (PFC) has been a true leader in advocating for a variety of issues important to DC residents for the past 9 years. Miriam’s Kitchen is proud to support their Downtown DC Public Restroom Initiative, which calls for clean, safe, and accessible public restrooms in our nation’s capital. This initiative addresses an issue of great concern to many Miriam’s Kitchen guests – not to mention many members of our community at large. We are happy to support PFC and their leadership in this work.
