About Shreveport Bossier Rescue Mission

Shreveport-Bossier Rescue is a non-profit organization located in Shreveport, LA. Shreveport-Bossier Rescue is a ministry that reaches out to feed, clothe, shelter, and provide healing services to homeless men, women, and families with children.

Pursuing the passion of Jesus Christ to lift up the hungry, homeless, abused, and addicted is what the Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission is all about. This is accomplished only by a caring community that supports those who need a “hand up,” a network of individuals, churches, businesses, schools, and organizations who donate their time, talents, and treasure to help hurting people. Since 1955 SBRM has been an ark of refuge for many people.

Our Life Recovery Program exists to help each man and woman that comes into our shelter with the opportunity to have a new beginning. The Life Recovery Program is called to be total recovery through spirit, soul and body. Men, women and children are taken into a safe, comfortable environment where they are given shelter, food, hot showers, clothing, medical/dental care, and access to life coaching, counseling and social services. After the initial assessment period with their assigned Life Coach, they are encouraged to make life-altering decisions that will profoundly affect their lifestyles and living conditions by joining either the temporary Guest Program, Work Program, Housing Program or Discipleship Program.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

While each drug rehab in Louisiana offers unique elements, recovery support often follows a similar pattern. Detox is followed by inpatient and/or outpatient care, then aftercare support is provided once the participant completes the initial program.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

substance-abuse iconSubstance Abuse

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

People gain great insight into the patterns of behaviors and the triggers that underlie addiction when they participate in group therapy sessions. Your peers will discuss their experiences and strategies they use to manage addictive behaviors, offering you a greater opportunity to learn coping skills that work.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

If you are spiritually strong this place will try to suck you dry and make you bow down to their god. Which is a controlling, manipulative, ahab and jezebel god. The true and living God isn t black nor white. Jehovah Shalom doesn t have a color, but by their remarks god Is black I m protected by a black god is straight mockery especially coming out of the mouth of a white man. They try to treat you like you re mentally ill rather than helping. They kicked me and my 5 year old son out bcc I was asking too many questions and wasn t just being a yes sir master to whatever they say. The mock God and take advantage of spiritually weak individuals. SLAVERY IS OVER. If you think a child isn t going to be hungry from 6pm-8am you are insane. But we can all see that the staff isn t missing any meals, OKAY ! They want to control everyone but themselves. The staff daughter who is of age is obnoxious but the staff yells all at another mother bcc her 3 year old was crying this place is in trouble with God and better repent SOON ! All is well 2 stars for testing my inner God, I will NOT fail. I pray healing over all. I forgive all. Shalom EarthPals. P.S. there s roaches . -Tardrique Willis

Based on the observations made during an undercover visit, it's evident that there are significant concerns regarding the operations and conditions at the facility in question.1. **Restrictions and Surveillance:** Policies restricting the use of personal phones within the dormitory, coupled with staff behavior resembling authoritative enforcement, create an atmosphere of unnecessary control rather than fostering a supportive environment.2. **Inadequate Facilities:** Reports of insufficient food portions for residents, unsanitary conditions in living spaces including dusty beds and unclean bathrooms, indicate a lack of attention to basic needs and hygiene standards, which can compromise the health and well-being of individuals seeking shelter.3. **Segregation and Security Measures:** The segregation of men and women by a black curtain in the cafeteria raises concerns about equality and inclusivity, particularly in the context of modern societal norms. Additionally, the presence of barbed wire fencing in the outdoor area and strict regulations on leaving the premises raise questions about the balance between security measures and maintaining a welcoming environment for residents.4. **Restrictive Policies:** Imposing rigid curfew hours and penalizing residents for not adhering to set times for returning to the facility can create unnecessary stress and hinder opportunities for residents to maintain connections with their support networks, such as family members.While commendable efforts such as drug testing and breathalyzer checks are noted, they alone do not mitigate the broader systemic issues outlined above.In conclusion, based on the observations and concerns raised, it is recommended that the management of the facility reevaluate their policies and practices to ensure they align with principles of dignity, respect, and inclusivity. Addressing issues such as hygiene standards, access to adequate resources, and fostering a supportive and inclusive environment are essential steps towards fulfilling the mission of providing effective shelter services to those in need.

For a shelter, the SBRM is well staffed, and they are friendly, God fearing people. They are organized and they provide good food and space to socialize. Please consider donating spare items here!

Seems like they exploit the women to stay longer in their program and have them work for free. Very rude staff with very little concerns on how they treat women with multiple children. Church is forced which is not godly. Locked me in my room for a week even though my kids were no longer sick. Very little food portions fed. Kicked people out on the streets almost daily. Women had been there for months without ever getting any help even getting a drivers license. I believe they just want to take advantage of people in a bad situation
