What do you want to know about homelessness?

Welcome to the Eugene Mission!

We are not a homeless shelter in the traditional sense. While we certainly provide our guests with food and shelter – and do so with an abundance of God’s love – the Eugene Mission’s ultimate goal is to provide holistic long-term solutions that lead to the long term wellness of our guests in Eugene/Springfield.

Help Transform Lives in Eugene

The Eugene Mission works to provide a permanent path off the streets for everyone who walks through our doors. By donating today, you become part of this transformative work that offers life saving and life-changing support to our precious neighbors in need. Life Change Program Director Denver Harris shares his perspective on the profound work being done at the Eugene Mission every day.

Follow us on Facebook to join the conversation, or if you have a great story and want to be featured!
