MISSION STATEMENT
This program provides holistic care, both physical and emotional, to the chronic homeless and housing vulnerable.
ABOUT The Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission provides safe and secure shelter from the elements for the homeless suffering with physical, emotional and/or mental disabilities.
The Guest Resident Program is designed to provide short term, emergency services to homeless persons for a period of up to 7 days. These services include shelter, food, clothing, counseling and medical attention.
The Extended Stay Program is designed to provide emergency services to homeless men for 30 to 60 days until permanent housing and basic needs are secured. Women are allowed after seven days to enroll in the Discipleship Training Program for Women, which lasts nine months.
These programs provide participants on-site residence, food, clothing, medical and other basic assistance, including Christian counseling and case management, until permanent housing and benefits are acquired. Our goal is to provide the best possible opportunities for participants to achieve and maintain the highest possible level of independent living.
