Since 1899, the boston rescue mission has provided a safe, healing community for people at risk of homelessness and substance use disorders. BRM is committed to transforming and empowering women and men at risk to END their homelessness and to become healthier and more self-sufficient. Every day, homeless women and men find dignity and refuge in our shelter community from the lonely and often violent streets and inclement weather. We provide hearty and healthy meals, a safe place to sleep, bathroom and shower facilities, toiletries, emergency clothing, and care for every person with respect. Staff is diverse in language, ethnicity, culture, AGE, skills, and knowledge and lived experiences and assist guests with achieving their goals for housing, recovery, physical and mental health and other critical needs. During fiscal year 2025, staff and volunteers prepared and served over 45,000 nutritious meals. LAST year, BRM's TEN BED facility in dorchester provided transitional housing.
