At our six Corps/Community Centers throughout the region children are offered a safe environment in which to explore and maximize their potential after school.  Our staff and volunteers serve as positive role models for these children, and provide them the leadership skills that parents have come to expect and appreciate from The Salvation Army.  Our Boys & Girls Clubs – at most of these community centers – offer fun recreational activities for our children to participate in.  From dance and music lessons, to Tae Kwon Do classes, and even special visits from local celebrities and sports teams, there is always a positive message to the work we do.  In the summertime, parents are also offered the opportunity to have their children participate in our summer camp program.

Be it in the privacy of their own homes, at one of our six Corps/Community Centers, or at one of our two independent-living, residential apartment-buildings for senior citizens, the elderly in our community have found a safe haven at The Salvation Army.  Programs that deliver meals and friendly smiles offer solace to the homebound; those who are able to mobilize find a place of camaraderie and activity at our Corps/Community Centers, where they are also provided daily breakfast and lunch meals; those who are on a low income and need an affordable place to live, have made our William Booth and Evangeline Booth Garden Apartments true communities.  These residential living units charge rent on an income-based scaling system and afford our elderly the independence and dignity they deserve.

When an individual makes the decision to change their life and overcome their drug and/or alcohol addiction, many have found the faith-based rehabilitation offered by The Salvation Army a true salvation.  At no cost to the recovering addicted person, The Salvation Army provides them a place to live, life-building skills, instructional courses, emotional and spiritual support, and the tools they will need to move forward on their own.  The Harbor Light Center has created the critically acclaimed Harbor Light Choir from their current and former clients; Sally’s House and Family Residence have propelled dozens of women back into society as productive individuals; and the Adult Rehabilitation Center continues to change lives – as do all our Salvation Army programs and services.
