The Salvation Army says its Louisville day shelter will close after a review of funding, staffing and use
WLKY reported that The Salvation Army’s Louisville day shelter at 911 South Brook Street will close on November 2, 2026. The weekday program, operating since 2020, provides people experiencing homelessness with indoor daytime refuge, basic support and connections to other services. The organization cited sustainable funding, staffing and volunteer capacity, declining participation and the need to protect other essential services.
