Homelessness at a Glance.
 According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, over a five-year period, about 5-8 million people will experience at least one night of homelessness throughout the United States.
According to the Urban Institute's report on homelessness, on any given day, 61 percent of the adult population using homeless assistance programs consists mostly of men by themselves. Another 15 percent are women by themselves. Hope Gospel Mission's services are designed to help both single men and single women.
What Causes Homelessness?
Homelessness is caused by a number of different factors, and clearly, every person’s situation is different. A critical financial or health problem, loss of work, lack of a supportive family network, or overwhelming addictions can remove the underpinnings that hold lives together and homelessness becomes reality. The problem of homelessness is caused either by circumstances beyond one's control or by poor personal choices...usually both.
At Hope Gospel Mission, we work with each of our residents to help them overcome their individual problems. Through our services, we are able to help the poor and homeless by providing them with the necessary support and resources whereby if willing, they can become productive members of society.
