Since 1946, City Rescue Mission has been a foundation of support for men and women in Northeast Florida struggling to leave behind homelessness, hunger and substance abuse.
After starting with a vision to simply provide “soup, soap and salvation” – support from our community has seen us grow into a safe haven that offers food, clothing, shelter care, transitional housing and residential recovery programs. Generous individuals, churches, businesses, civic organizations and foundations give financially to make this life-transforming work possible.
Mission
City Rescue Mission exists so that homeless and needy men, women and families, have their lives transformed spiritually, physically, and mentally for productive lifestyles.
Vision
City Rescue Mission will be a model for transforming lives of the homeless through the healing power of the Holy Spirit, changing the way the community views homelessness.
