Changing Lives Long-term

 

Although The Salvation Army is known as a place to turn for basic needs in dire situations, we strive to help families escape the grip of poverty for good. Several of our programs are designed to give children and adults the help they need to be successful and create a secure life for themselves. Many times we hear from people we have helped, who contact us to donate and give back once they are standing on their own two feet.

Programs that help families escape poverty once and for all include: After School Learning Centers for youth in challenging neighborhoods Career Enhancement Center for adults seeking employment Housing programs that give homeless families the tools to find and keep an apartment Worship and ministry services that give families a sense of community and family
