Chattanooga Rescue Mission
GiveShelter Inquiries from Community Partners
Please note these important details about our shelters.
- We are an evening shelter so the earliest a person can come on the property is 5 PM and everyone leaves at 6 AM the next morning.
- The Mission provides a bed, shower, meal, and chapel. It’s all free of charge. A person only needs an ID to stay.
- Our beds are first come first served the first night. After you receive a bed, every successive night you return, you are guaranteed to keep your bed.
- We cannot accept any male shelter guests who are not able to navigate five flights of steps independently throughout the night.
- We hope our guest’s stay with us is a blessing. Let us know if you have further questions.

Goodbye Shirley

We said goodbye to our friend and coworker, Shirley. She is moving to Ohio to be closer to family. Shirley was a real blessing and encouragement to all of us and we wish her the best in this next chapter of her life.
