SALVATION ARMY – AFTERCARE TRANSITIONAL SERVICES PROGRAM (PA)
Program Description The Salvation Army has a long and distinguished history of providing support and care to individuals and families that come from the most disadvantaged corners of society, people who are often poor in spirit and poor in economic resources. Founded in 1865 in England, the Salvation Army has served Pennsylvania since 1880. The organization takes a holistic approach to working with people, addressing their spiritual, emotional, educational, and material needs. In addressing the needs of individuals who were formerly incarcerated, the Salvation Army has created an aftercare program for individuals reentering society, with an express focus on assisting those with children. The Aftercare Transitional Services Program, begun in 1994 by the Salvation Army's Correctional Services office, targets a minimum of 15 incarcerated women who are at Community Corrections Center Three in Philadelphia . This program consists of weekly clinical group counseling sessions for 46 weeks. Session content includes topics such as parenting education, child abuse prevention, self-esteem, stress management, and substance abuse recovery. Program Goals Networking,
