Kirkens Bymisjon Kristiansand is a non-profit organization that works to promote respect, justice and care for all. The organization is known for its open and inclusive environment, where they offer meals that contribute to community and normality. Through various activities, they target children, youth and families, and engage in issues affecting the homeless.
In addition to their social services, Kirkens Bymisjon Kristiansand focuses on work inclusion and sustainability. They offer handmade products made by people outside the ordinary working world, which gives these individuals the opportunity to participate in working life in a meaningful way. The City Mission Center, which includes the City Mission Café and the Bryggekapellet, serves as a focal point for activities and support for the local community. The organization has been a long-standing advocate for queer love since the 1970s.
