Homeless Sheltersoffer men, women, and mothers with children meals, lodging,

clothing, and shower facilities. Case management, job and housing procurement, access to legal aid, educational opportunities,

counseling, and medical clinics are also available.

Residential Programsprovide temporary housing and case management for the working

poor and those experiencing adverse situations, such as mental health issues or recent incarceration.

Addiction Recovery Programs enable men and women to break free from drug and

alcohol dependence.

On any given night, there are nearly 1,700 homeless in Indianapolis.

Wheeler Mission was founded in 1893 by a group of women who wanted to help the poor by providing food, shelter, and life-skills training. More than a century later,

Wheeler Mission continues to provide long-term solutions to poverty and homelessness.

Backstreet Missions MergerFollowing unanimous votes by both Boards of Directors, Backstreet Missions in Bloomington, IN officially merged with us on October 1, 2015. Wheeler Mission now operates a Center for Men (top photo) and a Center for Women & Children (bottom photo) in Bloomington.

Shelter for Men RenovationPhase 2 of our Shelter for Men renovation is complete and includes brand new kitchen and dining areas, an expanded serving area, and additional sleeping areas for times of extreme cold weather.

Restored Creations Our Center for Women & Children’s addiction recovery ministry began a cottage industry that encourages the women by making candles and tea. Customers from area churches and growing online business are confirming that the items are a big hit. This is a good way to teach job skills and build a sense of potential within each lady.

Drumstick DashOur Drumstick Dash on Thanksgiving Day smashed previous records with 19,295 runners and more than 1,300 volunteers. It was the best outpouring yet from the central Indiana community (and beyond) in supporting this iconic fundraiser that helps the hungry, homeless, and needy in our community.
