Our free programs provide the tools to treat the symptoms - and the root causes - of alcohol and drug dependence.

The Center for Disease Control estimates that every year more than 100 people die and more than 6,700 people visit the emergency room for treatment due to drug use.

That's 6,800 families - with moms, dads, and kids - disrupted by the effects of addiction.

LIGHTING THE WAY BACK: OUR WORK TO combat addiction

For more than 100 years, The Salvation Army's Adult Rehabilitation Centers have provided assistance for men and women who have lost the ability to cope with their problems and provide for themselves.

The Salvation Army opened its first “cheap food and shelter establishment” in the U.S. on Dec. 23, 1891, calling it “Our New York Lighthouse.” Thirty-six men were given food and shelter in exchange for the promise of two hours work in the morning—washing dishes, cleaning up, or chopping and sawing firewood. This premise developed into the The Salvation Army’s Adult Rehabilitation Center (ARC) program, which today provides spiritual, social and emotional assistance to men and women—with no government funding.

Each year, The Salvation Army equips over 150,000 people to:

Combat Addiction through holistic work therapy, group and individual counseling sessions, spiritual direction and life-skills development.

Regain Health and Stability by developing a personal relationship with God as provided by Jesus Christ. Many residents learn to depend on God, rather than an addiction, for hope and relief.

Build Work and Social Skills through physical and spiritual components of the program. Members prepare to provide for themselves and others as they set and maintain sustainable employment goals.

Restore Families as many who have been rehabilitated are reunited with their families and are able to resume healthy daily routines.

 We can open the door for you.
