An Introduction to the Downtown Mission

Since it began in 1972, The Downtown Mission has continued to develop and change to pro-actively meet the needs of our region’s ever-changing population. The Mission’s work and the impact it continues to make on our regions most vulnerable is all due to the generosity and support of our very compassionate community members. Today, with your continuing support, gifts and encouragement, the Downtown Mission is a place of solace, compassion and hope for hundreds of men, women, youth and families every day!
