Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission Details
The Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission exists to pursue the passion of Jesus Christ to lift up the hungry, homeless, abused, and addicted. Since 1955, the Mission has been on the frontlines as a beacon of hope ready to help the most hurting and vulnerable in our community. From the Vietnam vet with severe PTSD, to the family struggling from the 2008 recession, to those affected by the current COVID-19 pandemic, and more, the Mission has been and continues to provide critical life services to the people of Northwest Louisiana.At the Mission, we are changing our cities one life at a time starting with the homeless men, women, and children in our care. The types of people we serve come from all walks of life. We serve women escaping domestic violence, veterans experiencing PTSD, men and women struggling with addiction, women escaping the sex industry, individuals experiencing unemployment, those who have suffered severe trauma, seniors who have disabilities, and more.While we do provide emergency shelter, we are more than just a shelter. The Mission provides a full-scale Life Recovery Program that not only meets a person's basic needs but also provides them with the tools needed for a complete life transformation. Our Life Recovery Program provides our guests with the ability to overcome the struggles and trauma that led to their homelessness and gives them the skills they need to permanently end the cycle of homelessness and poverty. The Life Recovery Program provides guests with small/large group classes, essential life-skills education, one-on-one weekly case management, counseling, vocational training, on-site medical and dental care, and more. Over the course of a year, over 80,000 meals, 47,000 nights of shelter, 4,200 medical and dental services, 9,300 hours of classes and essential life skills education, 38,000 hours of Vocational Training and more than 6,500 hours of one-on-one case management are provided to 895 homeless men, women, and children.
