context_page_description: The Milwaukee Rescue Mission is a shelter for homeless and ailing families. Since 1893, it has worked with the hungry and hurting of Milwaukee, helping them restore their lives and their hope. In its Milwaukee home, any given night will see nearly 1,500 homeless people will be on the streets. The Milwaukee Rescue Mission seeks to meet those in need where they are. The Milwaukee Rescue Mission offers practical assistance like food, clothing, and shelter. In addition, the shelter offers transformative programs that equip struggling men, women, and children to get off the streets and turn their lives around for good. While practical assistance is important, the Milwaukee Rescue Mission supplies both short- and long-term assistance, complemented by education, counseling, help in overcoming substance abuse, job training and much more. The organization bases its programs on addressing the root causes of problems, rather than simple temporary fixes. As a non-denominational Christian organization, it provides spiritual development and enrichment, all based on the good news of the Gospel; it professes that the Gospel message is the key to lasting change.
