These people are FALSE HOPE, may GOD disband this program. No they don't keep people in their program for long. No matter what you do to try to get back on your feet. They'll throw you back in the streets. You'll lose your job and can't keep a job being homeless again.
You're choice if you don't take my word for it, I'm sure the program white supremacists only will feed you lies about me.
If you're thinking of suicide. That's the outcome these white supremacists expect. They won't give a damn who you are. Or what you could of been.
I just acquired a great paying job. Had to buy new clothes because they don't provide that. They only help by looking up other resources to call and inquire about.
They don't help with housing except pay the hotel through state funds. They don't talk to apartments for you. You're credit score poor, they will not help you. They say they do, but they will find ways to exit you out of the program before they use state funds.
You'll be back in the streets in due time limit. And you'll end up donating your clothes you bought specifically for work. And use up your funds just to run a heater in your car to stay warm at night. Spending money that you just saved up for a hotel to shower at least once a month.
The moment I was looking for an apartment. They make you do all the ground work. Expect you to have appointments done. Even though you've been working everyday for 5 days a week st 10 hour shifts and sore, tired. The job I had was very physically high demanding.
Lost the moment I was forced to leave the hotel I was in. So much for progress.
False hope these programs. Oh and I'm taking this so much further into the state and federal agencies. I may be homeless but I'm not a dummy.
Good luck.
This organization should be called "False Hope." Their Rapid Rehousing coordinator led my family on for over 6 months but we received no help with anything ever. She promised us everything from food to blankets to diapers to help finding a home and made us jump through tons of hoops but each time she did not return calls, never showed up, made every excuse in the world instead of helping with any of it. Then decided she had me all figured out when I refused to have my stability and safety threatened further than it already has been. She decided to pull rank and deny me access to assistance that could have changed my family's life for the better. I was in no way included in this decision and they did not even bother to have accurate information about me and my situation before deciding to deny me. The organization treated me like a child and their representatives told me they just didn't believe I was ready for the assistance I need. Despite the fact that we have never met, have barely spoken by phone, they can't seem to remember or don't care about my family's actual story, and never followed through with any assistance dangled in front of us whatsoever. I tried to speak to the Executive Director privately about my complaints and was forced onto speakerphone with the employee listening, although I was on hold a lengthy period of time before I was connected to E.D. while she and employee discussed their opinions of me in private. I recommend saving yourself the heartache and disappointment these people will bring if they arbitrarily decide they don't believe in you or want to help you based on their personal biases.
