Review for La Casa De Las Madres, San Francisco, CA, USA
La Casa de las Madres has a very special place in my heart. Not only does La Casa offer a wealth of comprehensive services through their shelter program, they also tailor services to the individual. The "no judgements" culture significantly improves the quality of services presented by their advocates. I went through their shelter training program as a volunteer several years ago, and what I learned about myself in the 40 hrs of class was life-altering. It taught me that no matter what you see on the outside on an individual, inside we are all fighting the daily battle of survival so we need to help each other out despite our preconceived notions about how people should handle difficult situations. The most valuable lesson: listen... then, listen some more.
Review for La Casa De Las Madres, San Francisco, CA, USA
Very thorough 40 hour training to help out at shelter. The main idea behind this group is empowerment and lack of judgement for their clients.
