While the Mission continues
to provide basic emergency services, it is placing greater emphasis on recovery,
encouraging motivated people through the steps to responsible, independent lives.
People who come to the Mission for help are victims of
poverty, powerlessness and hopelessness; they suffer from the tragic consequences of
violence, drug/alcohol abuse, child abuse, teen pregnancy, illiteracy, unemployment and
depression. They need much more than basic food and shelter to turn their lives around.
