Established in an effort to serve the homeless in the greater San Fernando Valley, the roots of the San Fernando Valley Rescue Mission grow deep, span over 40 years and were established as an outreach ministry of the Rescue Mission Alliance a Christian based non-profit organization. Founded in 1998, the San Fernando Valley Rescue Mission began as the Rescue Survival Outreach Services (S.O.S.) Program serving meals to the Valleys homeless. In 2002, the Mission launched the Family Shelter program in a collaborative effort with San Fernando Valley area churches in response to the critical unmet need for a year round emergency shelter. The program has been designed to provide homeless men, women, children and families an opportunity, not only to obtain food, shelter, and basic life necessities, but also provides a foundation for individual and family restoration by developing a personalized plan based on their needs for achieving personal growth, employment, and housing.Located in Northridge, the new 90-bed family shelter offers hope, shelter and safe, supportive housing to thousands of families who are homeless. The new facility includes private family bedrooms, a commercial kitchen, common dining room and living spaces, meeting rooms, computer education center, playground and garden all geared toward helping families achieve a brighter future.This new resource enables the San Fernando Valley to realize a reduction of its homeless population, many of whom are neglected, and underserved. Staff work with families to establish a plan for restoration and self-sufficiency, offering life skills programs and training on-site for up to 10 months, as well as collaborating with other agencies and community resources.With construction completed and the family shelter now open, it is truly an exciting time for the Mission and our community. We invite you to stop by for a visit, consider volunteering, and to donate to this important home within the community. For more detailed in
