Homeless Shelters

At The Salvation Army, our doors are open every day — and night — of the year. Through our emergency housing facilities, homeless shelters, transitional living centers, group homes, and family shelters, we provide more than 8 million nights of lodging annually.

In some cities where we do not currently operate homeless shelters, we help provide financial assistance to cover emergency overnight housing costs or refer those facing food insecurity and those at risk of homelessness to trusted partner programs with emergency shelter services.

In addition to supplying beds, food, shelter from the elements, and basic hygiene resources to those in need, we help combat long-term homelessness in America by providing homeless adults, veterans, and children with holistic physical, emotional, and spiritual support.

During the COVID-19 outbreak, our homeless shelters evolved and innovated to provide a variety of services to their neighbors in need despite the ongoing and ever-changing challenges.
