It was awful! I needed help getting back on my feet after my son passed away. I had always admired The Salvation Army. My Mother and I made donations to the Waltham branch on several occasions. Being a Christian I went to the program for help as I was struggling with my faith. I was treated very poorly by staff and the women who were in the house with me were newly released from jail. I didn’t understand what I was getting into here. It was very cult like. I must admit I did get closer to God because I was treated so badly that I had to rely on God. It was like being an indentured slave. We had to work in a warehouse with no moving air and we were not allowed to wear tank tops because we couldn’t show our shoulders. I ended up leaving the program because it was doing more harm to me than good. I would never recommend this program to anyone. So sad that my whole view on this organization has been tainted.
