The Mayor of St. Louis, Mo., Francis G. Slay, named Oct. 10 “Salvation Army ARC Day” in celebration of The Salvation Army’s Adult Rehabilitation Center (ARC) 80-year anniversary of providing drug and alcohol counseling to community members in need.
The St. Louis location is one of 153 centers throughout the country providing this type of physical, spiritual, mental and emotional care to men and women. The Salvation Army rehabilitates approximately 350,000 individuals each year, a service that is enabled solely through donations to family stores.
