Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The Rescue Mission of El Paso is working to address the problem of homelessness and addiction within the community. We do this by providing safe shelter, food, clothing, counseling and access to medical care. Those who are homeless do not have access to basic necessities and that creates an endless cycle of homelessness. We provide basic needs so that they can work on finding a job or stable housing and allow each person to become self-sufficient.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Drug & Alcohol Relapse Prevention
This thirteen week alcohol and drug rehabilitation program provides a stable, safe environment where participants are encouraged and supported during their rehabilitation. Individuals are required to stay at the Rescue Mission for the 90 days of the program.
Corner of Hope (Street Outreach)
The Corner of Hope is a day resource center that ministers to men and women experiencing homelessness and not staying at the Rescue Mission. We offer a warm meal, water, clothing, toiletries, access to restrooms, showers and laundry machines all free of charge. The goal of this ministry is to build trusting relationships with people experiencing homelessness and encouraging them to take the neccesary steps to get out of homelessness.
Vocational Rehabilitation (Hallelujah! BBQ)
Hallelujah! BBQ was created to employ and empower those who have graduated our Drug & Alcohol Relapse Prevention program. Our goal is to create a supportive work environment for men and women in recovery while training them in the food industry to give them experience and a reference. We also outsorce to ther local recovery organizations to offer job opportunities to their recovering residents as well.
Not only are we a vocational rehabilitation program, we also make the best best smoked BBQ in Texas! Our award-winning brisket has been praised by all who try it!
Re-Entry Program w/ El Paso County
We've partnered with El Paso County Jail to offer temporary transitional housing for men and women who have been released from the County Jail. Because the Rescue Mission of El Paso also houses women and children, we only accept individuals with non-violent crimes.
