I’m a therapist. I brought a girl there with her child. She was a victim of abuse. They took her and they gave her counseling. They set her up in her own apartment. They got her clothing. They got her social services. They found her a job. They did a fantastic job

It was a place to stay until I was threatened by a resident; unprovoked. I was scared to leave my room. Because I didn't go out to breakfast, the woman was confronted by other residents and turned it around as if I was harassing her. The staff REFUSED to hear my side of the story and I was outed, child in arms. I hope it's doing better now, but, there WERE horror stories while there. Another woman was told to come and that she would be placed in transitional housing. Her car literally died on the way over. She escaped without shoes on. They gave her the boot because she had no kids. Another woman watched her kids get taken away because someone spread a false rumor that she talked to her ex's family. People were threatened for buying their own food with their own food stamps because the staff wanted us to only eat the food offered and their kids wouldn't eat it. Another woman was forced out because her worker told her she could retrieve her belongings (and keep them in her room) from a storage unit and when she got everything there, they told her she had to get out asap! The residents fought each other because they wanted that choice transitional housing option. It's like emotional fight club. Again, I hope things got better since. But, I want women to know, sometimes it's not the best option.
