Victoria Young The Salvation Army in Concord is holding a land dedication today, June 4, for its anticipated Center of Hope. The Salvation Armyâs Picture Hope Capital Campaign is a fundraising campaign to build a 16,000-square-foot shelter in Concord to serve Cabarrus and Stanly counties. The 64-bed emergency shelter is critical to the health of the community and will provide six family living quarters, double the number of beds for women, and increase the beds for men by three. Most important, the increased space will allow The Salvation Army to expand services and programs that meet the immediate needs of shelter residents while providing in-depth casework and programs designed to help break the cycle of poverty and prevent future episodes of homelessness.
