What is Homeless Outreach?
San Diego County's homeless population consists of families, and single men, women, and children. Most are homeless due to the high cost of rent and insufficient income. Many others suffer from substance abuse and mental illness.
The Salvation Army has a team of outreach workers who visit pre-established sites frequented by the homeless population, i.e. parks, beaches, feeding sites, areas surrounding shelters, and occasionally churches.
Our Mission: To assist a person in transition from a state of homelessness into taking steps toward a more dignified, self-sufficient and productive lifestyle.
The Salvation Army has served San Diego for over 130 years
And assisted more than 267,000 needy individuals in San Diego County last year.
