WHO: From Streets to Sobriety, the San Diego Rescue Mission is not just a homeless shelter. The Mission’s purpose is to rescue homeless men, women and children from the streets of San Diego and give them the tools needed to permanently overcome the drugs, alcohol, domestic violence, and other critical issues that led them to the streets in the first place. Focusing on long-term treatment, SDRM houses hundreds of men, women, and children and provides shelter, food, counseling, treatment, and work therapy. One of the largest privately funded programs in the county, the Mission is a nationally recognized for its successful programs.
In addition to its long-term programs, each night up to 60 homeless women and children seek emergency shelter at SDRM. All told, the Mission services over 3,000 individuals and prepares over half a million meals annually. Since its inception in 1955, the San Diego Rescue Mission has relied solely on mail solicitations and corporate donations, rather than government funds
to run programs. To make a donation or for more information visit www.sdrescue.org.
