Emergency Shelter
At The Salvation Army in Waukesha, we provide safe emergency shelter for up to 32 men every night of the year. As Waukesha County’s largest men’s homeless shelter, we serve individuals in need with compassion, dignity, and respect.
While staying at our shelter, men receive more than just a bed. Each year we provide:
- Case management sessions to help men set goals and move forward.
- Hundreds of personal hygiene kits to support daily health and dignity.
- Nutritious meals served daily for every resident.
Our mission is to help men in Waukesha County find employment, secure stable housing, and rebuild their lives. With life skills classes, job search support, and structured case management, residents can stay for up to three months while working toward independence.
