Texas community resource
Life Recovery Program
Good Shepherd Mission
Structured, faith-based residential recovery program for homeless men, women, and a very limited number of families.
How to get help
Read the official program page, then call and speak with the director or case manager or leave a voicemail with contact information and a request to enter the program. If space may be available, staff sends a short questionnaire by text or email before a possible full interview. The Mission is often at capacity, and contact or completion of the questionnaire does not guarantee admission.
Who this service helps
Applicants must be drug- and alcohol-free at admission, have valid photo identification, not be registered sex offenders, be medically and psychiatrically stable, independently manage daily living and personal care, safely use the building's large staircase, be mobile, and be able to contribute 20 service hours weekly. The Mission is not equipped for detoxification, ongoing medical care, mobility assistance, or unmanaged severe psychiatric symptoms. Other factors, including criminal history, are reviewed case by case.
