Topeka Rescue Mission Ministries - Hope Center

Shelter for single women and families. Run by the Topeka Rescue Mission.

The Topeka Rescue Mission is a homeless shelter which has served Topeka, Kansas for more than 58 years. TRM is dedicated to providing food, Priority Sheltering- for the first time in TRM history, we will give priority to those coming from the 5-county surrounding area including:

a. Shawnee
b. Wabaunsee
c. Jefferson
d. Jackson
e. Osage

All other potential guests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Our goal is to decrease the likelihood of having people who enter our facilities from geographic hot spots. This was not a decision that came easily. It has always been our desire to serve all who come to our doors seeking help, yet in this critical time and considering our top priority of safety for guests, staff and volunteers it is the soundest decision.
Food Distribution- At this time we are limiting in-house meals to our guests while continuing to provide sack meals that include items for supper and breakfast to those from the community at large.

Sack Meals are distributed Monday Friday 6-6:30pm and Saturday and Sunday 5-5:30pm out of the Northwest door of the main Shelter

We are also continuing to supply food boxes to the community every Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Other items that can be requested when getting a food box are:

- Hygiene items
- Pet Food
- Diapers (sizes 1-4)
