It is also one of <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/MD17.pdf" target="_blank">Baltimore’s 138 private, non-profit treatment organizations</a>. Along with disaster relief, shelter, and family services, the Baltimore center offers <strong>long-term, faith-based residential treatment for men</strong> seeking treatment for addiction.

The spiritual component is provided through faith-based activities such as Bible study and religious practices. The facility and its program are heavily influenced by Christian religious beliefs and practices, although people of any religion can participate. </p> <p>The social component comes from <strong>residential care that uses a social model,</strong> in which residents play an active role in healing one another through a therapeutic community.

Education is also an important component of treatment, and clients participate in anger management classes and relapse prevention training. Residents are also expected to attend <strong>AA and NA meetings</strong> as a part of their addiction treatment. </p> <p>The final component is physical, where <strong>clients work in Salvation Army thrift stores</strong>. </p> <p>Through these foundations, as well as a <strong>growing relationship with Jesus,</strong> the program hopes to help clients to build an orderly and fulfilling way of life. <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/webt/state_data/MD17.pdf" target="_blank">Only 37.5 percent of facilities in Baltimore</a> offer employment training, and clients can learn job skills working in the thrift stores. </p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The area commanders of the Salvation Army in Central Maryland are long-time majors in the Salvation Army, one of whom was helped by the Salvation Army's services as a child.
