So need security deposit money for a new apartment? Try calling a HUD approved agency. They may be able to point you in the direction for getting grants or money for a security deposit. These HUD agencies may even be able to point you in the direction for food and those other types of programs. Here is a listing.

Not really sure what you mean by a grant, but there is no such thing as free money. However there are some non-profits and rental programs in Washington DC that you can try, and they are on the main site. Maybe they will have funds for helping with a first month rent payment or security deposit if the only other option available is homelessness. Read Washington DC financial assistance.
