Salvation Army Anchorage Program

The Salvation Army Anchorage Program (Ottawa Booth Centre) provides comprehensive addiction recovery and social services in Ottawa, Ontario. As part of The Salvation Army’s mission of care and restoration, the Anchorage Program offers a faith-informed continuum of residential, outpatient, and transitional support for individuals and families facing addiction and homelessness.

Residential Treatment and Detox

The Anchorage Program offers inpatient residential treatment for men, addressing alcohol, cannabis, cocaine, methamphetamine, and opioid addictions through structured programming that combines counselling, life skills development, and spiritual support. The residential model provides a stable, drug-free environment for clients to focus fully on their recovery.

Outpatient and Community Services

Transitional and Sober Living Support
