ABOUT THE SALVATION ARMY COASTAL ALABAMA
The Salvation Army of Coastal Army offers a full range of support services, including emergency shelters, job training and placement, social services, and work therapy programs for men. At its Mobile County Corps Community Center, located at 3200 Pleasant Valley Road in Mobile, Ala., eligible individuals may receive food and financial assistance with their rent and utilities.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
To be eligible for these services, the Salvation Army Mobile County Corps Community Center requests that individuals bring with them identification, proof of income (if applicable), and proof of address. Food and financial assistance is available on Tuesdays, between 2 p.m. and 4:30 p.m.
At its nearby location, the Salvation Army runs Dauphin Lodge, a state-certified addiction treatment facility that’s directed by a team of master’s level counselors. Dauphin Lodge offers two care options: a six-month residential program and an intensive outpatient program (IOP) with day and evening sessions.
Additional offerings include a Christian-based Work Therapy Rehabilitative Program (CSRC) and Project Able, a job placement and mentoring program for men who are homeless and unemployed. Both programs provide men with their basic housing needs, daily meals, counseling, and transportation.
STAFF CREDENTIALS
While the nearby Dauphin Lodge is run by master’s-level counselors, there is currently no information provided by the organization on this exact location.

FINANCING
Services and programs are funded by proceeds generated by the organization’s local family thrift stores and through a grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
