Las Vegas Rescue Mission

Our residential recovery program is for men and women with life-controlling addictions who want to make a positive life change. The program is free and is a way to get off the streets into a safe environment. Residents have all physical needs met during the program, so they can focus on recovery. The recovery program is up to a one-year commitment and can serve approximately 120 participants. Residents are required to actively pursue recovery, including attending required treatment programming and meeting regularly with a counselor. The program also includes providing a resident with the necessary tools for successful integration back into society. For more information about entering the program, come to the Mission between the hours of 8am and 2pm, monday through friday and fill out an application or call 702-382-1766.

We have emergency overnight housing for individuals, families, single mothers with children, & we are the only local shelter able to accommodate single fathers with children. Our facilities provide temporary housing for nearly 200 men, women and children daily. The overnight shelter guests can stay up to 7 nights if they request only emergency shelter, should they request case management services their stay can be extended on an individualized basis. These single men, women and families are provided with overnight shelter, hot meals, clothing, assistance with transportation, parenting classes and additional programming to assist them in finding jobs, stable housing and ongoing support to prevent them from sliding back into homelessness.
