Finding Strength: Salvation Army’s Path to Recovery

It's an illness and it's not the individual who has its fault.
Ever wondered how the Salvation Army helps those battling addiction? In this episode of the Hope Village Podcast, hosts Lucy Hall and Ri-Karlo Handy sit down with the Directors of the Salvation Army’s residential substance abuse treatment centers in San Diego and Los Angeles County. With over a century of dedication, these centers offer more than just a place to stay—they provide a lifeline.
Through free programs that include housing, food, counseling, and community support, they aim to tackle the root causes of prolonged alcohol and drug dependence. But it’s not just about providing basic needs; it’s about rebuilding lives. The directors share heartwarming stories of individuals who’ve found new purpose through work therapy and community involvement. These programs don't just help people survive—they help them thrive.
The episode also touches on the importance of overcoming shame and guilt, two major barriers in the recovery journey. Listeners will gain valuable insights into accessing resources for addiction treatment through Medi-Cal and learn practical ways to support loved ones struggling with addiction. Whether you’re on your own recovery path or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a wealth of knowledge and inspiration.
Tune in to hear real stories of transformation and find out how the Salvation Army’s approach could be a beacon of hope for many.
