YUGM Stores have quickly become some of the most popular thrift stores in Yakima. They are clean, beautifully decorated, and are full of wonderful merchandise! You never know what you’re going to find, from designer clothing to beautiful gently-used furniture and decor. Our stores are a treasure hunter’s paradise.
But there’s more! Everything that is donated and sold at a YUGM store helps us with our singular mission of bringing people from homelessness to wholeness! By shopping with us, you are changing people’s lives by supporting and funding the incredible work and programs at the Yakima Union Gospel Mission! So while you are getting great things, you are also GIVING great things to those in need right here in our valley!
Our recovery program is a trauma informed, faith based residential program that helps our clients move from homelessness to wholeness. We use a relational, experience-oriented system that focuses on replacing unhealthy relationships and experiences with loving and healthy alternatives. Through this process, self-destructive patterns of addiction, abuse, neglect, shame, and isolation are replaced with improved coping skills, healthy relationships, and the confidence to live a new life.
Contact our Recovery Services Team via email, or call 509-248-4510.
Families experiencing homelessness can come to Yakima Union Gospel Mission for food, safe and secure shelter, clothing — and much more. We strive to surround hurting guests with loving care and support, and to impart a sense of security and trust so healing can begin. Families with children can feel safe in a secure part of campus specifically designed with a family’s needs in mind.
Contact our Family Shelter via email, or call 509-853-4330.
When someone comes to Yakima Union Gospel Mission, their first stop is at Emergency Services to have their immediate physical needs met. Here, they can sign up for overnight beds, eat three meals a day, take showers, get haircuts, pick out fresh clothes, and receive medical care.
Counseling from our staff is available to discuss options for entering our recovery programs or finding assistance at other service providers in the area.

Established 1995, the YUGM Medical Care Center remains one of only a few clinics that provide free medical, dental, and mental health care services to the most impoverished people in and around Yakima.
The clinic averages more than 9,000 patient visits each year made possible by over 200 volunteer medical professionals.
Contact our Care Center via email, or call 509-853-4327.
The medical clinic is often the only facility that can care for the complex and myriad health
needs associated with poverty. Whatever medical condition a homeless or poverty-stricken
person presents, our licensed doctors have the expertise and resources to provide for their
needs.
Dental care is a key piece to overall health and restoration, yet most individuals we see have
neither the insurance nor finances to afford vital services. Our Dental Care Center is stepping in to fill this void. With the help of a faithful group of local dentists and volunteer professionals, we provide full dental services to low-income individuals in our community
Help support the efforts to overcome poverty, homelessness, and addiction by becoming a voice for those who have none. By becoming an advocate for the poor and homeless in Yakima, you can help educate and influence our civic and cultural leaders to support resources and enact legislation to help our cause.
