Salvation Army Outgrows Space, Moves

WOODBRIGDE, Va.  – The Salvation Army Prince William Corps recently moved to a new location.

The Salvation Army Prince William is now located at 1483 Old Bridge Road, Suite 102, Woodbridge, VA. The previous space on Ridgewood Center Drive became too small. It will also help The Salvation Army meet the growing demand for services needed by struggling families living in the county.

Located only minutes from Interstate 95 at VA-123/Gordon Blvd, the new setting also paves the way for the expansion of character building and music programs for youth, and additional chapel space for Sunday worship services and church activities.

Families seeking emergency social services assistance to prevent eviction, utility termination, and hunger should continue to use the same telephone number: 703-580-8991. Clients should call first to make an appointment with the intake coordinator.

The moved was completed during the first week of this month (May 2014). Captains George and Robin Hackbarth continue to serve as the Corps Officers in charge at The Salvation Army Prince William Corps.
