FAQ

How are Union Rescue Mission's services unique?

We provide a comprehensive range of programs and services under one roof, whereas many other service providers are able to concentrate on only one type of service. In addition to emergency shelter and food, URM provides recovery programs for men, women and families including Christian-based counseling, education, physical fitness, job training, and transitional housing.

Union Rescue Mission networks and partners with other area service providers to aid those who seek help. In partnership with caring universities, Union Rescue Mission is home to critically needed services for people experiencing homelessness.

Union Rescue Mission is:

  • The only emergency shelter for women & children in central Los Angeles open 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
  • The only Mission in L.A. to have been awarded the Certificate of Excellence by the Association of Gospel Rescue Missions in recognition of outstanding commitment to providing quality care for those experiencing homelessness.
