WHAT IS CONSIDERED EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE?
Emergency assistance is provided to people who come to The Salvation Army with pressing financial needs. Usually, by the time they come to us they need help to survive, as they have exhausted all other resources and are under threat of utility shut off, eviction or foreclosure.

WHAT DOES THE SALVATION ARMY DO TO HELP?
The Social Service Program seeks to help people by not only making provision for their immediate needs, but by working with them to find more permanent solutions to the root causes fo their problems, through counseling, material resources and referrals to other agencies.
