YUGM’s was founded in 1936 to help the homeless transition to wholeness by giving them a safe place to live, food to eat, and community support to develop interpersonal growth. On-campus, we help our clients build healthy relationships and habits, and we share the love of Jesus Christ. We live by Jesus’ teachings to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. In striving to serve the underserved Yakima community, we hope to give others the same opportunities that God has graciously given to us.

With God’s blessings and continued support from our community partners and volunteers, we have expanded our services and programs to reach more people in need than ever before.
