The Tri-City Union Gospel Mission began serving Benton and Franklin counties over 57 years ago, providing rescue ministry to the broken, bruised, and needy in the Tri-Cities and surrounding communities. Their desire is still the same today-to minister to the spiritual, physical, and moral needs of transient and destitute individuals and assist the poor and needy. They serve as advocates for the homeless, poor and discarded members of our community, with an emphasis on presenting a realistic and compassionate picture of their unique needs, especially homeless women and children. Daily, the Mission provides food, clothing, shelter, resource assistance, drug and alcohol counseling and treatment, emergency shelter for both men and women, and women with children. They also provide outreach into the community through weekly furniture, food box, and clothing give-away programs, as well as an intensive residential addictions program.
