It comes as dangerously cold temperatures threaten those living on the streets.
the need for homeless shelters in Montgomery is growing.
The Salvation Army is temporarily moving to Mercy House’s MAP Center off East Delano Avenue to make way for the city’s new whitewater rafting park. But at their new temporary location they are unable to operate as a homeless shelter. “Even when both shelters were running at full capacity, in my opinion, just speaking of myself as a homeless advocate, we still didn’t have enough shelter space to accommodate the street homeless in Montgomery,” Aitken said.
Although they are no longer operating as a shelter, the Salvation Army has helped people they were housing find temporary places to stay. But until the Salvation Army can find a permanent home, they are limited on how they can serve those in need.. All you have to do is dial 2-1-1 for assistance.
