Jefferson County Rescue Mission

At the Jefferson County Rescue Mission in Saint Louis, MO, our mission is to extend compassion and practical support to those in need throughout Jefferson County and parts of St. Louis County. We provide essential services such as food assistance, clothing, and shelter to homeless individuals, families facing hardship, victims of abuse, the unemployed, children, and the elderly. Recognizing that our clients often require more than basic necessities, we also connect them with resources for overcoming challenges like substance abuse and educational opportunities. Our comprehensive approach includes medical and housing support through referrals to trusted organizations, ensuring that we address the diverse and increasing needs of our community. Additionally, we distribute food baskets during holidays, provide school supplies, and offer a free prescription drug discount card, all while maintaining our food pantry and soup kitchen to nourish those who are hungry. We welcome everyone seeking help, and our commitment is to never turn away anyone in need.
