The Association of Gospel Rescue Missions represents nearly 300 rescue missions and other ministries that minister to homeless and poor people in the inner cities of the United States and Canada. Since 1913, AGRM member ministries have offered emergency food and shelter, youth and family services, prison and jail outreach, rehabilitation, and specialized programs for the mentally ill, the elderly, the urban poor and street youth. If annual cash contributions were combined, the Association Rescue Missions would be among the 10 largest nonprofit organizations in the United States.
