About The Augusta Rescue Mission

Since 1965, the Augusta Rescue Mission has had a tireless commitment to breaking the cycle of homelessness. By creating a safe and healing environment for homeless men—more than just a shelter and soup kitchen—the Mission offers the means for men’s lives to change, arming them with the understanding and wisdom for sound decision-making, as well as with life skills.

Most importantly, residents at ARM receive the spiritual foundation needed to rebuild their lives. Hope means knowing that you are never alone. Augusta Rescue Mission addresses the root causes of homelessness. Our goal is total life recovery for every person to whom we minister.

Through our Resident Worker Program, our Overnight Guest Program, and by providing resources to our community – family emergency assistance, holiday meals, emergency shelter and chapel services – we attempt to share the compassion of Christ in a variety of ways.
