Jefferson County Rescue Mission

At Jefferson County Rescue Mission, located in Hillsboro, MO, our steadfast mission is to provide essential food assistance, clothing, and shelter to individuals and families in need across Jefferson County and parts of St. Louis County. We are dedicated to serving the homeless, the hungry, victims of abuse, children, and the elderly, recognizing that many who seek our help are facing challenges that extend beyond physical needs. Whether they are escaping violence, struggling with addiction, or in search of education and job training, we believe no one should face these difficulties alone. While we strive to meet the urgent requests for support, we also connect our clients with medical and housing assistance through comprehensive referrals, ensuring that they receive the full range of help available. Our community services include distributing food baskets during the holidays, providing school supplies during the back-to-school season, and offering a free prescription drug discount card. Our food pantry and soup kitchen are open to serve those experiencing hunger, ensuring that no call for help goes unanswered in our mission to uplift lives and empower our community.
