City Rescue Mission of Lansing

The city of Lansing is rezoning a pair of properties downtown to make way for a new City Rescue Mission homeless shelter. But some community members allege the mission is discriminating against the LGBTQ community.

Lansing City Council members say they’re concerned about possible discrimination within the City Rescue Mission. That's as the council considers the organization's rezoning request.

The City Rescue Mission in Lansing wants to acquire two buildings on West Kalamazoo Street to open a women’s homeless shelter.

As COVID-19 outbreaks continue forcing three Lansing shelters to halt intakes, some shelter administrators say they’re finding it difficult to mitigate the spread of COVID on their own.
