My Nonprofit Reviews

Review for The Montrose Center, Houston, TX, USA
My perception of Montrose Counseling Center has been shaped by what I have heard from many acquaintenances over the past several years who have used their counseling services. I have always heard great things about the services they provide. In particular I have a friend who was dealing with being newly diagnosed HIV positive. He benefited greatly from the counseling support he received at MCC at a really difficult time in his life. He was not comfortable sharing his status with family or friends and therefore really needed someone he could comfortably talk with. I also know of many friends in recovery who have been counseled at MCC to great benefit. I was recently asked to consider Board Membership at MCC so I did some research and soliciting of feedback from others in the LGBT community. What I learned made it very easy to make this serious commitment to them. I think Houston is very lucky to have an organization which does so much for the LGBT community and does it so well.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
the lives of LGBT friends struggling with addictions as well as a friend newly diagnosed with HIV.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
that the Board, who I have recently become involved with, are genuinely committed to making a difference in the lives of LGBT people in our area.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
committed, hard-working and talented. The fact that their is a wide variance in ages represented on the board makes them well-suited for an organization whose clients are all age ranges.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
get the word out, offer more counseling to those in need in our community, continue to battle HIV by educating target audiences.
