The Salvation Army  San Francisco

Emergency Disaster Services

Whether a local incident or a major disaster, Salvation Army staff and volunteers are often the first on the scene and the last to depart...honoring a century old commitment to serve those in need, at the time of need, and at the place of need.

The red shield continues to be a beacon of compassion; of immediate aid, psychological support and spiritual counsel to individuals and families whose lives have been disrupted or shattered by forces beyond their control.

From these beginnings, The Salvation Army has developed local, regional and national disaster services programs.
