Changing Lives Since 1888
The Union Gospel Mission of Tarrant Country opened its doors in 1888 to help men, women, and families in Fort Worth and the surrounding area who had lost hope and had nowhere else to go. Today, anyone coming to the Mission in need receives shelter, food, and other vital services, regardless of gender, race, or religious beliefs.
For those who are homeless, temporary and transitional housing, free meals, clothing, and laundry facilities provide safety and security. Counseling and life classes help men and women repair their broken lives. Childcare and tutoring teaches girls and boys to believe in themselves and succeed in school. Daily chapel services and Bible studies introduce those who are hurting to the source of all healing and hope: Jesus Christ. The Healing Shepherd Clinic, one of many programs at the Mission, delivers free primary health care and medication to every guest or long-term resident.
