I am currently a resident here at Good Shepherd have been here since September 10th. All of the services that the website says they provide is untrue. Alot of the women leave here unhoused. The case managers here make and cancel appointments with no explanation. There is currently no heating in the facility, the health department came out yesterday 11/30/21 and interviewed alot of the women here. The food is unfresh. I write this review because I feel as though I am being discriminated against because of my ethnicity, I'm also being told that I'm not a priority. I came here from sleeping in my car I am a cancer survivor with many other health issues.. I came here for shelter and hopes of getting help to change my life and I know that with all of the funding available I should receiving services.

This place was horrible had a friend staying there and the food was expired. The tenants helpers were rude and she is still homeless. They promised her housing assistance... which she was accepted for and hasn't heard anything in 6 months. I am worried about my friends safety. She goes from place to place hoping to receive a miracle. Where is the love!

I traveled 30 minutes to this place after I called and they told me they were excepting donations. I get there with bags of clothes and shoes, the secretary opened the door with a smile, however the other workers all looked at me as if I was doing something wrong. One lady proceeded to ask me if I had called and I told her yes she then told the secretary to tell people NOT to bring any donations today. I was applaud she asked me to take my donations somewhere else because they were busy. I couldn't believe it, she then said well we can just give your donations to the salvation army. If I wanted to give to SA I would have. I can't believe trying to do something beneficial to others would be so difficult. I hope they dont make as hard for the actual people in need.

Definitely feel like they could give out other resources if they are full. They lady says check back in a few months and I asked if she had any other recommendations for pregnant women just a flat out no dismissive attitude. I'm sad as hell and you just sitting there congratulating me on my pregnancy when I'm already down on my luck I don't need you to congratulate me on my pregnancy I need you to help me. Smfh.

I was here about 2years ago and yes it is hard to get into IF you're trying to do it on your own. I had help from Homeless Health Care which is located down the streets from them but one of the managers from there made the call and explained my situation and in no time at all I got a call from them and i was in there for the next 3months I was safe and off the steets. But they will tell you not to try and bond and make friends which I found hard to do which also made it hard on me. The women story's they share are so heart felt and heart breaking you can't help but to form some type of bond with them but I'm finding out which doesn't last long so it would be best just to STAY FOCUS and do what's need to get you back on YOUR FEET and on YOUR OWN AGAIN!
