Hope Happens Here.

Helping men, women, and children break free from homelessness through the transforming grace of Jesus Christ.

Union Gospel Mission Homepage

Every night, over 1,600 people are experiencing homelessness in Marion and Polk Counties.

That number has to change. We welcome those in need with daily essentials to help them recover from homelessness, hunger, addiction and poverty and give them the opportunity for long-term, sustained life change through God’s love and the generous support of our shared community. Together, we can make a difference in countless lives!
