I'm glad it's here for the people. They offer much needed help and connect you to more help. All you have to do is want the help.
They do the best they can with what they have.
If you or someone you know is homeless, start here!
As a participant of this place and willingly volunteer for them all i can say is this. Do you reallt wanna know GOD? Well come here He/she comes here quite often. U dont think he goes to Malibu that much. They think they have enought money to have it all.
P.s. quute frankly between me and you. I ratger live here 10000 times more. I love you forever my beatiful midnight mission. My mission is to make you proud of me......Thank you!!!!
Great place to grab some grub and a shower. It is just in a horrible location.
Great place however I did not enjoy them rushing everyone while they were eating.
even if this magical activity of this organization in favor of humanity is a thoughtful humanitarian business, the result of this well-embodied idea, which was at first a dream, a great one. It is a pity that this rescue for people is not federal
Wonderful atmosphere to be of service to those suffering
Good. Tymes fa tha. Desetbed in transitipn.. 6 mnth. Prgrm...
They help the homeless as best as they can. Need more beds. A regular polling place as well.
An absolutely humbling place to do community service
It's far more than mere words can express. The Yin and Yang truly exist with true concern and care riding in the front seat. Great Job.
poor management and selfish attitude and the programs rachet unconstructive don't stop ppl from stealing
Have to remember from where I have been. Reminder that life is not soo bad but could be alot worse and to treat people like you would like to be treated and to have a little compassion toward others. Did not go there to eat but to remember how it was. So here is a comment. It is what it is. It was what it was and it will be what it will be. # Marck. The only control we have is ourselves and sometimes that is hard enough.
The Midnight is one of the oldest shelters in Skid Row. They just opened the Bridge program for women a little over a year ago. They still don't have facilities for families or specifically for children. It is mainly there to help the homeless and/or addicted men.
The worst part of the place is their outdoor courtyard.
Because of various reasons, many homeless gather in the courtyard facilities to sleep, hangout or have access to their outdoor restrooms. Which used to be a total nightmare but on a recent visit I found they had completely revamped it. It's very clean, stocked with the necessities and has an attendant at all times. This has stopped the constant fighting, overt drug use to the point that people would pass out on the toilet with needles sticking out of their arms and the constant overdoses. Incremental improvements are I suppose better than none!
If ever you need a place to rest your neck, this is it 24/7.(Risky)
Try to control the Gangs and by using more security.
Extremely useful resources for the ones who need it most
A very good place for homeless people to bathe, hang out and meet with the staff for individual help.
It's for homeless people to go to get out of the street. A shelter
they are always helpful to me and my service dog maestro food is nutritious and plentiful
The Midnight Mission has been there very very long time. Many people have restarted their lives there. And there were many people that just barely make Came To Stay Alive by coming to the midnight mission. I enjoy the fact that they do have the courtyard with people can sleep. And it's kind of like a safe place to sleep hopefully won't nothing happen to you while you're in that courtyard. I don't know about the food. I don't know about what programs are offered. But I do know that 12-step meetings are there every day and that's a wonderful thing because people need access to that. In the hope that recovery is truly possible if you're willing to do it. I am grateful for such places as the Midnight Mission. It's not a hole in it but it is some sort of safety net. Where one can come and shower get a change of clothes get some toiletries and get a bite to eat and go to a 12-step meeting. And the area other services that can be accessed if you're willing to talk with the staff of the Midnight Mission that are in the position of case manager.
The Midnight Mission is a typical homeless shelter, like the Weingart, where security is a gang in themselves. They serve breakfast and dinner, and it's open to everyone. I've never stayed there, but the building is more modern day than the ancient pile of garbage,Weingart.
This mission helps a lot.
Poor people. This is my recommendation
Showed me a different way to living. How to have compassion for those less fortunate than I have been. Ultimately making me a better person. I've learned that there is growth, even in humility. And to be humble, truly. You MUST survive humility of some type.
Has it's pros and cons but their purpose is good if you are ready to change
Always where I was, to Help Me Volunteer, to Move FOWARD On...
Truly a work of God what all these loving people are doing to help the homeless situation in Los Angeles! God bless Dick Van Dyke & all of those other wonderful people that work here & that have helped make the Midnight Mission the success that it is today!
Overcrowded. Small food portions. Horrible neighborhood full of dope and violence like no other ive ever seen. But yea, free food-thats cool. I just wish they helped me get an apartment or a hot shower without an id. Showers are cold and i got beat up in the bathroom. Endless crime outside; i got beat up there as well. Nights sleeping outside in front of the mission are filled with endless drug deals, violence, and gross zombies. I guess i could put up with all of the above so long as the showers were hot. But they aren't. On the positive side they are open almost all the time. Word of advice: don't make any friends with the homeless in the vicinity. They are psychos, undercover bi-polar fools that will fight you and yell in your face. One guy almost fought me for not watching his backpack. Getting back on track: the overnight beds are limmited and overcrowded. I only go to this neighborhood if i am starving. I really should rate it at 1 star. Nontheless MM ends starvation when panhandling doesen't work. The police are also mean. The tv room is hot, overcrowded and stinks like straight bo. Endless crack smoking in the bathroom. This place blows. I hate drugs. For those volunteering it might be 5 stars, but homeless living in front of it with no id its -5. I just appreciate the food; its not a home cooked meal though.
It a blessing feeding the homeless and they hav programs for people nt jus homeless
My life is clean and livable, because of the midnight mission. I'm a better man thanks to MM.
My long time friend Lori is now heading up this fantastic charity.
They assist those truly destitute by offering workshops, GED training, vocational support, they give them the skills to be anle to succeed on their own. they also have onsite housing, consisting of over 40 appartmentments, and a full industrial kitchen to feed those in need.
This is what compassion, and caring about your fellow man and woman is all about.
A fantastc aid for those so deperate in need.
God bless them all.
Midnite mission helped me I started working thanks to my awesome Counselor/ caseworker Mr Larry Love .he is awesome I can't explain but this man is a. Gift from God the dedication& time he gives to help. .
Good People there Rita Richardson Has a HousingProgram herei if you Give it a Chance it Works
20 free meals every week. Food is sometimes basic, but always served in a healthy, respectful manner.
Good place to start your life all over again.
Thank you to all the Midnight Mission Staff for what you do!!!
Horrible from top to bottom. Security is ghetto and the guest fluently engage into arguments and fights. Not a good place to sleep due to chronic addicts and loitering in the vicinity. They also hang around the mission restroom.
Dropped off some old suits and shoes. It s been a while since I ve been DTLA to donate and to serve at their lunch line. They serve 2,500 meals at lunch. Over a million meals a year. And their graduation and holiday services are so powerfully moving.
Midnight mission is a very wonderful place for the homeless
It okay. It could be better, if someone was stop touching me ,while sleep...
Great place for homless but need better looking security that look more professional and less thug
Richard seems to be the acting supervisor atm our family walked in he couldnt answer any of our questions and seemed to be disturbed by my family needing help. We need more caring women in the position to give answer to families reguarding services that are provided by the midnight mission. Ill be going highee up untill my questions can be answered
IT'S NOT CLEAN &
THEY NEEDED TO CLEAN THE AREA
Steady meal program and safe place to eat for those in need of a helping hand.
Security guards treat you like garbage and food is shity
Great place. Drug and alcohol rehabilitation free of charge. Homeless shelter, transitional living, free meals to the the homeless, education center and job placement. Truly a magical place.
this organization has stolen money from credit card. i launched investigation in my bank.
I thank God for this place and Bobby for introducing me to their breakfast buffet they have kept me well fed since I've been in L.A.
Because it should be the newest Calvary Chapel of Skid Row. Thy will be done.
I'm unsure as to why this place still exists? Does it actually even shelter people inside anymore?
It offers a few slop meals a day, but other than that does it actually do anything to offset the enormous tax burden that it creates(and as a general rule, I usually support tax exemption for Churches and religious nonprofits).
The best homeless shelter in town, helps so many people and the staff are awesome! People have come out of some pretty damaging habits here and I have been blessed to experience first hand how far they will go to help people get back on track! Thanks Midnight!
Great services and staff is the most helpful than any shelter I've lived in
Was out here along with my brothers and sisters from the dream center! Handing out food and drinks and best of all prayers...
It's a real dilemma out in skidrow.. way to many people in need. I pray for everyone out there.
It's a great place for recovery and to meet new friends from all walks of life,so if you want to recover from alcohol or drug abuse this is the right place
The Midnight Mission is a non-profit organization that has been dedicated to helping people experiencing homelessness since 1914. The organization provides a wide range of services to help individuals and families get back on their feet and transform their lives.
One of the key services offered by The Midnight Mission is emergency shelter. The organization operates several shelters throughout the Los Angeles area, providing safe and secure housing for those in need. In addition to shelter, The Midnight Mission also offers meals, clothing, and other basic necessities to help individuals meet their immediate needs.
But the mission of this organization goes beyond just providing basic necessities. The Midnight Mission also offers a variety of programs designed to help individuals overcome the root causes of homelessness and achieve long-term success. These programs include job training, education assistance, addiction recovery support, mental health counseling, and more.
One unique aspect of The Midnight Mission's approach is its focus on holistic healing. Rather than simply addressing one specific issue or problem area, the organization takes a comprehensive approach that addresses all aspects of an individual's life - physical health, mental health, emotional well-being, financial stability - in order to create lasting change.
Another important aspect of The Midnight Mission's work is its commitment to community involvement. Volunteers play a crucial role in supporting the organization's efforts by donating time and resources to help those in need. Whether it's serving meals at one of the shelters or participating in fundraising events throughout the year, there are many ways for people from all walks of life to get involved with this important cause.
