The Salvation Army will soon begin a large remodeling project that will nearly double the capacity of the shelter in Fayetteville Arkansas.

The project will separate the addiction recovery program from the shelter and expand the overall capacity from 26 to 48 total beds. The women’s and men’s dorms will expand, and the center’s existing family dorms will be converted into two apartments with 10 to 12 beds for families, including private bathrooms and a shared kitchen.

The remodel will also include a new computer lab to help guests find work, take classes, or reconnect with family or friends.

By nearly doubling the capacity and adding essential resources that the guests normally don’t have access to, The Salvation Army can continue serving the most vulnerable and meet human needs without discrimination.

This new project will allow shelter guests to feel more comfortable and provide an overall higher quality of living.
