Description

The Shield of Hope, a program offered by The Salvation Army, is the first emergency homeless assessment and rapid-response center in Chicago that aims to provide immediate housing services to families in need. The program is designed to prevent homelessness by quickly responding to the needs of families who are in sudden crisis and lack shelter options. The center provides resources like emergency shelter, meals, and comprehensive case management services. Their goal is to transition families from homelessness to a stable living situation within 14 days of their arrival.
