Our Mission
RCSM Royce Clinton Shorter Ministries  is a faith-based 501(c)3 not-for profit community service organization dedicated to serving individuals in youth detention centers, prisons, missions and shelters to effect positive holistic change in their lives, and to serve the community as a facilitator of awareness, education and prevention of HIV/AIDS.  We seek to serve all who are in need, regardless of race, religion or lifestyle choices.

Our Passion
RCSM has declared war on recidivism and HIV/AIDS. We are in the fight for the lives of countless people in Washington State. About 97 percent of incarcerated men and women will one day complete their sentences and be released to the community. Without successful efforts to resolve their individual deficits, many will return to lives of crime. The goal of RCSM is to prevent that from happening through life skill development.

In the United States there are an estimated 250,000 people infected with HIV/AIDS that don't  know they are HIV positive. As an American Red Cross Authorized Provider of HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention education RCS Ministries is working to position our community to win this battle. Education and testing are our best defenses against the spread of this devastating disease. RCSM provides training throughout the community and has partnered with a major health care provider to bring free HIV/AIDS screening to the community.
 

Our Challenge
Most people do not want to talk about HIV/AIDS or prison. Our mission is not a popular one. Most people find the topics uncomfortable or embarrassing. Some feel that the people infected with HIV/AIDS or in prison have created their own problem. Yet both issues impact the lives of someone we come in contact with everyday. RCSM is committed to go where most won't go and help those that most choose to ignore.
