Pathway Of Hope and introduced a new program within The Salvation Army, called Operation Red Shield.

Operation Red Shield is a program run through the Salvation Army’s Northern New England Division. This program has been designed to provide services for U.S. Military members, Veterans, and their families. ORS is a case management program that is committed to filling the gaps in the existing Veteran-related social service programs. Our case managers are committed to fulfilling any unmet needs by assessing any underlying issues that are ultimately leading to more struggles. Some examples of these issues are financial instability, substance abuse, and mental or physical health conditions.
