Facilities and Services:
Men's Residence - There are 20 bunks and 25 camping mattresses for the 43 men in daily residence. There are 2 showers, 3 stools and 3 sinks to handle the 43 men. About 130 meals are served from our 32 sq. ft. kitchen each day. The meals are primarily served to our residents but they are also open to anyone in need of food.
Women's Residence -Located at 530 SW Foundry in Grants Pass, Oregon, the Fikso Family Center is a giant step forward in the way Christians can act out the love of Jesus to those women finding themselves in need. The Center is a much needed transition from the 11 bed facility we used previous to the move. This new home houses up to 60 women and children.
Ray Allen Center - Our Drug and Alcohol Recovery Center located at 243 NE D St. RAY ALLEN CENTER IS CLOSED DUE TO STRUCTURAL INSTABILITY!
