LOCAL Closer Look: Central Union Mission D. C.

Posted on Sunday, October 24, 2021 by Monika Kelly

Monika Kelly spoke to Central Union Mission CEO Joe Mettimano about all of the unique services that the mission offers--a men's shelter and ministry program, help for families and children from at-risk neighborhoods (including a food and clothing pantry), workforce training, medical help (including psychiatric care), Camp Bennett (a summer camp for at-risk children), a Social Work Department and daily chapel services. The Central Union Mission also has a bakery and a business called Mission Muffins Trailer, helping thousands of people have an opportunity to work. You might be surprised what CEO Joe's mom did years ago to inspire him to help homeless people.
