We are located in Lancaster City and serve all of Lancaster County. Our population are men, women and children - our neighbors - who come to Water Street Mission in a moment of profound crisis. When our neighbors are in crisis, it weakens our entire community. Our guests have long been marginalized and overlooked. We welcome those experiencing a season of homelessness, poverty, and food insecurity by making them feel a part of the Water Street community by communicating dignity, safety and hope.
