The Department of Buildings (DOB) ensures that key information about the nature and impact of our work is reliable and accessible to stakeholders and the public.

The marketing and communications team promotes the agency by increasing public understanding of DOB, its people, and its value to District of Columbia residents. We also create and publish materials vital to the agency’s mission.
