Grantmaking
We fund organizations and projects which disrupt our current behavioral health space and create impact at the individual, organizational, and societal levels.
Participatory Funds
Our participatory funds alter traditional grantmaking by shifting power
to impacted communities to direct resources and make funding decisions.
Special Grant Programs
We build public and private partnerships to administer grant dollars toward targeted programs.
Program Related Investments
We provide funds at below-market interest rates that can be particularly useful to start, grow, or sustain a program, or when results cannot be achieved with grant dollars alone.

New Day Drop-In Center
Kensington Community Resilience Fund
The Salvation Army’s New Day Drop-In Center (NDDI), established in Kensington in 2014, is a fully-functioning drop-in center designed to serve female-identifying individuals ages 18 and up who have been victims of human trafficking, rape, sexual assault, robbery, or other crimes.
About
The Salvation Army’s New Day Drop-In Center (NDDI), established in Kensington in 2014, is a fully-functioning drop-in center designed to serve female-identifying individuals ages 18 and up who have been victims of human trafficking, rape, sexual assault, robbery, or other crimes. We offer a safe place for our clients to rest and receive support for their basic needs so that they can break out of exploitation and move towards self-sufficiency.
We believe the client is the expert of their story, and we honor this through our trauma-informed approach to care guided by the Sanctuary Model®. Also, we utilize a tiered approach to ensure clients are supported in every stage of their journey, whether they simply need a brief respite from the street or they are looking for strategies to make real life change. We work with more than 60 partners to provide resources to our clients and build resilience in the community.
A $10,000 grant from the Kensington Community Resilience Foundation would support maintenance of NDDI staffing levels and allow the center to function at its highest efficiency. Any funds not utilized towards staffing maintenance would help to cover the costs of client treatment plans and basic supplies for service.
