Supportive Housing
The Mission provides a continuum of housing and supportive services that help individuals experiencing homelessness progress from emergency shelter to permanent housing and long-term stability.
Last year, more than 120 clients successfully transitioned from The Mission’s shelter into independent living with many residing in one of The Mission’s five houses and one apartment building providing livable housing for 43 individuals.
Those who come through The Mission can live at Mission-owned properties through a vetting process requiring—among other things—a bank account, proof of income, job readiness, and health insurance all of which individuals can acquire through The Mission’s Care Coordination unit and The Mercer County Community Wellness Center.











“I think if people live in a dignified way and get the support they need, they’re going to thrive when they leave here. And when they come, they’re going to feel a sense of hope and a sense of community.
-Chief of Supportive Services, DuEwa Edwards-Dickson
