WHY GOSPEL RESCUE MISSION?

HOPE. SHELTER. TRANSFORMATION.

For more than 70 years, Gospel Rescue Mission has helped men, women, and children move from homelessness to wholeness through emergency shelter, addiction recovery, workforce development, and housing solutions.

As Southern Arizona’s largest provider of emergency shelter and life-transformation services, we work alongside more than 50 community partners to provide comprehensive care, restore dignity, and create lasting change.

Shelter

Emergency Shelter & Guest Services

More than a safe place to sleep, Gospel Rescue Mission provides emergency shelter, nutritious meals, clothing, showers, hygiene services, and compassionate support for individuals experiencing homelessness. Every guest is welcomed with dignity and respect while building relationships that can lead to recovery, employment, housing, and long-term stability.

Addiction Recovery

Faith-Based Addiction Recovery

Our Christ-centered recovery program helps men and women overcome addiction through faith, accountability, counseling, life-skills development, and supportive community. By addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual impacts of addiction, we help guests build a foundation for lasting recovery and restored lives.

Workforce Development

Workforce Development & Job Training

Stable employment is one of the most important steps toward self-sufficiency. Our workforce development program provides career coaching, job readiness training, certifications, resume assistance, and employment connections that help guests overcome barriers and secure meaningful work.

Housing Solutions

Housing Assistance & Permanent Housing Solutions

Our housing team helps individuals and families move from homelessness to stable housing through personalized case management, housing assessments, financial planning, rental assistance connections, and partnerships with local housing providers. We work alongside each guest to create a path toward long-term housing stability.

Stories of Transformation

Every transformed life tells a story of hope. Meet the men, women, and families whose lives have been changed through the generosity of donors, volunteers, and community partners who make our mission possible.
