Review for MARY & MARTHA HOUSE INC, Ruskin, FL, USA
The 1st review is from a worker named Jon who also worked at this location. I volunteered also at that time before Laurie became the director of this location. This is not a good faculty all the way around.
Although, it will help in an immediate crises for a safe housing option. You should consider other centers in the area.
The programs lack direction, considerable humiliation, and what I witnessed as a volunteer was horrific toward women of very little means. The negative review posted prior could be someone who was upset, asked to leave or made too. I am uncertain.
What I can tell you is that the prior negative review on Laurie is correct. I witnessed it many times with her behavior toward others. She would be little people and I am surprised after all this time she is still employed or how she was even promoted to director. I can tell you while I was a volunteer she had two very different sides depending on who she was in front of.
In addition, nothing is private at this location. You will be talked about to others who have nothing to do with the program. I have witnessed this. To me, I feel this was dangerous and could put others in danger. Complete lack of responsibility on keeping something private.
I did enjoy working with a few others but both are retired. I think at one point the Mary Martha started out correctly. However, Laurie is not this Christian saint she claims to be. It's why I stopped volunteering at this location and why I know longer asked for donations for this location or for people to help. I felt embarrassed about it because of what I seen women go through.
