We Offer Hope & Refuge

The Salvation Army of Wake County Barbara L. Goodmon Family Shelter programs are designed to provide emergency or transitional housing to families in need. Underlying this program is a motivation to identify the causes of homelessness and work to eliminate homelessness at its source. We are located at 1863 Capital Boulevard in Raleigh.

How we help equip families

While at a Salvation Army shelter, families and individuals participate in programs and workshops developed to promote self-sufficiency and personal development. Each resident is matched with an on-site caseworker and together they develop an extensive goal-oriented program designed to identify and overcome the barriers to safe, permanent housing.
