Thank you for your trust and caring support to The Salvation Army for over 130 years. We depend on community support so that we can continue to offer hope to people who struggle with today’s most serious problems, including drug and alcohol dependencies. Thank you for helping us to provide such needed services as housing, food, clothing, rehabilitation, and spiritual renewal, to men and women through our Adult Rehabilitation Centers.

God bless you.

Joe W. came to us after losing his wife, his children, his job, his self-respect, all because drugs and alcohol had crept into his life and destroyed everything decent. When Joe arrived at the ARC he told several people that he would probably be around for only a day or two; just long enough to “clean up and get something to eat.”

Joe graduated last night after six short months in the program. His family attended the graduation ceremony and the reunion was a blessing for all to see.

Joe has put in an application for employment with the ARC where graduates of the program make up approximately 20% of the total workforce.

Joe is living proof that The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center program works.
