Project Details

The Montana Rescue Mission (MRM) in conjunction with Mountain Plains Equity Group, Inc. (MPEG) are working to develop the MRM Unified Campus, a new homeless shelter and affordable housing campus that will include a new homeless shelter, 29 affordable apartment units and supportive service and amenity space for residents.

This exciting new facility will be located at approximately 2822 Minnesota Ave. in Billings.  The MRM Unified Campus will consist of significant renovations and updates being made to the current MRM facilities located in downtown Billings.  Once completed the project will bring the MRM’s Men’s Shelter and Women and Family Shelter under one roof.

When completed the MRM Unified Campus will boast a completely new homeless shelter with 50 beds for women and families and 76 beds for men.  The campus will also house 6 transitional supportive housing apartments that will offer opportunities and supportive services to residents that will allow them to move toward independence, and 23 supportive housing apartments.  To be known as the “Mission Apartments” these 29 affordable rental apartment units will be dedicated to qualifying families and individuals earning less than 60% of the area median income.  On the campus, a separate building at 21 S. 29th Street will undergo significant updates to create modern classrooms for job and life-skills training, an exercise facility, a chapel, counseling and healthcare offices, and a childcare space with a secure outdoor playground.  This thoughtful approach and a creation of a “full service” campus will be instrumental in breaking the cycle of homelessness in the Billings community.
