Life Skills Workshop Volunteer

Partner Description

The Salvation Army's mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination. The Salvation Army's Adult Rehabilitation Centers (ARCs) provide residential recovery programs for individuals seeking to deal with substance abuse and other addictions. They seek to help participants regain self-worth, learn how to build an orderly and disciplined life and become contributing members of society. Each program participant is provided with a clean and healthy living environment, nutritious food, group and individual counseling, spiritual direction, work therapy assignments, and recreational activities.
Need
Empower individuals transitioning out of homelessness with the foundational habits needed for independent living! Long-term stability requires more than just housing—it requires a routine of healthy daily habits. By coming alongside shelter clients, you will help teach and model essential routines that build confidence, personal responsibility, and a sense of pride in their environment.
More Details
This is a deeply impactful, relational mentorship opportunity for individuals who want to directly coach and encourage adult residents. You will lead or assist with practical, hands-on workshops covering standard daily responsibilities.

When: Saturdays from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM.

Topics Covered: Maintaining organized personal bed spaces, basic property respect, light dining hall cleanup, the essentials of laundry, personal hygiene, and maintaining a healthy diet.

Requirements: Because this role involves direct mentorship within a residential program, volunteers must complete standard partner screening prior to their first session.
