While the services have changed over the years, three things have remained constant for The Salvation Army throughout 93 years: the love of Jesus Christ as the driving desire to serve others; offering practical services; and coupling those services with understanding, compassion, and hope.
The Harrisonburg Salvation Army Corps, located on Ashby Avenue, provides material, emotional, and spiritual support to children, women, and men. In addition, the local Corps operates the Family Services and Emergency Shelter, a 40-bed facility on Jefferson Street.
