Homeless Programs
Grace Place Homeless Programs Information
The Salvation Army of St. Croix County has many programs designed to serve our most vulnerable adults. With an increase in demand for services coming from our homeless seniors, homeless veterans and homeless individuals with disabilities (either mental or physical), the need to expand our programs is here.
SOAR - SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access, and Recovery
Grace Place Shelter has paid staff who work full-time to help homeless, disabled individuals apply for Social Security Disability Benefits. Many homeless individuals who are disabled do not have the resources they need to get help for their disability. Having the disability, in turn, makes it impossible to work to gather the resources they would need. Grace Place Staff are able to provide this important resource to individuals and have a very strong record of successful applications for our most vulnerable populations. While working on Social Security Applications, residents can move forward in housing and are provided case management throughout the process.

Homeless Veterans
Over the past few years, Grace Place has seen an increase in the number of homeless veterans without the resources they need including shelter. When a homeless veteran stays at Grace Place, our Case Managers work directly with County Veterans Services officers to connect our honored men and women with the resources they have earned. Partnerships with our local VFW's, American Legions, and other Veteran Programs are essential to ensuring our Veterans are cared for in the most effective and best possible way.
