Building a Future
The Salvation Army’s Transformation Supportive Housing helps residents gain control of their lives.
By Juan Romero Faith & FriendsAfter living with a family member for several years, he faced unfair treatment. Internal conflicts grew until one day Mike reached his limit, and a life-changing altercation left him without a place to stay. Eventually, Mike connected with The Salvation Army’s Journey to Life Centre in Thunder Bay, Ont., where he began his path to stability. “I feel a lot better now. I feel like I’ve improved here. I feel safe here at The Salvation Army,” he shares.
