Mel Trotter Ministries

Located in Grand Rapids, Mel Trotter Ministries is a faith-based organization serving people experiencing hunger and homelessness. Its shelter services combine warm meals and a safe, dignified setting with relationships and resources intended to help people move toward lasting stability.

Through smaller dorm-style suites and specialized case managers, the ministry supports guests as they work through barriers such as addiction and trauma. Services include case management, access to clinics, a computer lab and cafeteria, along with outreach and a mobile shower unit.

Mel Trotter’s transitional housing gives guests an opportunity to continue case management while working toward personal goals and permanent housing.
