Booth Family Center
Booth Family Center offers homeless families a safe haven in which to rebuild their lives in the Grass Valley area.
Focusing on breaking "the cycle of poverty," we teach families life skills needed to ensure stability and for the building of a solid foundation from which families can grow and reach self-sufficiency together. The goal is not to just provide temporary housing for homeless families, but to help prevent them from returning to homelessness, now and in the next generation.
Please call (530) 274-3500 or email bridget.mccort@usw.salvationarmy.org for more information.
