Seeking Help

You're Not Alone

For over 100 years The Salvation Army has been one of the worlds most active organizations in the fight against substance abuse. Approximately 20% of adults in the US suffer from alcoholism or drug addiction. We are here to help those who are sincere about reclaiming their lives in this struggle.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is based on helping people help themselves. We accomplish this by helping them achieve balance in the spiritual, mental, and physical aspects of their lives. When this balance is achieved, the problems of addictive behavior can be overcome. The ARC is a place of hope and new beginnings for those who suffer from alcoholism and/or drug dependency.

Recovery Program

Our program for helping people end addictive behavior is based upon a multifaceted approach which provides for various individual needs. The following support is provided to program participants:

  • Shelter, food and clothing
  • Spiritual counseling
  • Individual counseling
  • Twelve-step meetings
  • Peer support groups
HOPE

Once they had it too... Now they're finding another chance to find hope at The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center.

 

 

HOPE -- We All Have it

 

It's a long road back to hope and to dream. Many men and women have been reunited with their families, kept good jobs and made significant contributions to their communities for many years after completing the ARC program.

 

The ability to hope to have a better life , experience a better community, and build a better world is common to us all. Through Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Centers, people whose lives have been shattered are learning to hope again. More importantly, they are being provided with the faith, skills and inner tools to makes their dreams come true.

 

An Open Door of Help

 

The ARC program operates because of the support of people in the communities they serve. Donations of usable clothing, furniture and household items form the backbone of support. These items are picked up at donors' homes or left at our Collection Centers and then processed as part of the work therapy program. Some items are given away through our Family Service Department or during disasters. Most are sold in our Thrift Stores with all the proceeds going to support the Adult Rehabilitation Center program. Each ARC is open to all people regardless of their race, color or national origin. Everyone with a sincere desire for rehabilitation and who will participate freely in our program's work therapy, counseling, and spiritual growth efforts is welcome. Each is treated as a fellow child of God, a man worthy of dignity and respect.
