How We Serve
Educational and Job-Training Opportunities
Today’s job market is historically competitive no matter what the profession. By helping people pursue and complete school requirements, job-training services, certifications, and other requirements for employment, we tear down the qualification barriers standing in their way. For those with mental health or substance-abuse issues, we help them find the treatment and/or medication they need to perform at their best.
Job Placement Assistance
Most career counselors will tell you personal and professional connections are keys to a successful job search. We not only help those in need and people who are homeless and unemployed with the basics of finding a job – like crafting a résumé and making a good impression in interviews – we provide job placement and employment assistance. Essentially, we are the professional connections that help job seekers find work opportunities for living wages.
Veteran's Services
Veterans often find themselves battling loneliness and depression years after returning home. The Salvation Army is committed to supporting those who served our nation by offering a variety of veterans services to meet their needs. Whether it’s phone cards to call home, wheelchair assistance, large-print Bibles, or a friendly smile and companionship for the afternoon, we’re always ready to come to the aid of a veteran. From treatment for substance use disorder to facilitating family reunification, housing placement, and job training, The Salvation Army Veterans and Family Center (VCF) provides U.S. veterans with support while they rebuild their civilian lives. Additional training for new skill sets and development in the areas of education, employment, health, finance, housing, and social relationships is also available.
The Salvation Army helps the unemployed get back on track.
For those stuck in long-term unemployment, The Salvation Army is a refuge of resources and support. We combat the symptoms of prolonged joblessness, as well as its root causes, through programs that address the mind, body, and soul. It’s a holistic approach that is creating sustainable change for millions of families and individuals every year.
