There are so many way to make a difference in your community.

For the past 42 years, Visalia Rescue Mission has felt the call to serve the homeless and those in need throughout Visalia and the greater Central Valley. As we seek to provide services to our guests and residents, we are actively looking for ways to help them in all areas of their lives; physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Through our overnight services, community meals, case management appointments, recovery program, community outreach, and more, our goal is to reach those in need with the love of Jesus Christ and a desire to serve our community.
