Through the generous financial support of the deLaski Family Foundation and in partnership with George Mason University, PIQE opened the doors of this office on February 2, 2008. Located in Fairfax, Virginia, we are here to serve the entire Washington DC Metro area. This consists of Washington DC, Prince George's County in Maryland, and several counties and cities in Northern Virginia: Fairfax County, Arlington Country, Prince William County, Alexandria City, Falls Church City, Manassas Park, and Manassas City.

During the spring and summer of 2008 the Nine-Week Parent Involvement Education Program was offered in both English and Spanish to parents of high school students enrolled in the Early Identification Program at George Mason University. A total of 123 parents graduated from those first classes. In the following months, several organizations and school districts worked with PIQE to offer the program in four languages: Spanish, English, Arabic, and Vietnamese. As of the summer of 2009, 570 parents have graduated from the nine-week program.
