Management at PATH needs to be humbled down. They talk about making an impact in peoples lives yet Blanca Hernandez isn’t one of them, she poses as she’s such a heart kinded person but she isn’t. She treats her employees poorly and only favors those who she really likes. It was brought to me attention by other employees that alot of the participants complain about her feeling superior or being rude and after working with her for a couple a days i definitely confirmed it was true. A lot of the employees also gossip about their participants.

Path is non-profit helping the homeless but the issue is huge that one organization is not able to help not even 5% of the homeless population of Hollywood, East Hollywood, the buildings looks nice and the programs are good but still people living around in the area at night is very dangerous, even during the day time.

I’ve been homeless for a year and I have emailed and called them countless times. A guy called me to help me but everyday he is busy and can’t talk. Seems like they don’t really care and only helps people when they want. If your homeless and don’t mind being homeless for years until anyone helps you then this is the place.

The organization that is focused on solving problems of homeless people. Our society is in deep need of such like organizations and people who care for community. There are a lot of organizations that claim to solve issues of homeless people but actually they focused on making money while pretending to be honest, but the only “honesty” is there greed. Thank you PATH for helping people and serving community. A+

Sure I am a PATH client not a representative. There are many ways to address housing. DCA website follow up constantly. Apply yourself to both LA, OC Database, by shelter winter or Salvation Army.

What kind of services do you provide?

Jessica Phillips | Aug 23, 2020
Naomi Berris | Aug 23, 2020

They provide 3 meals a day, shower/bathroom, a refrigerator for various medicine, assistance with applying to Los Angeles County aid (food stamps/cash aid - "General Relief", etc), federal aid - Social Security and other qualifying government programs that a person may be entitled to. Referals to other various government agencies, referrals to housing agencies whether public, private, or private/public partnerships. And, if needed and desired plus agreed to by client, referrals to substance abuse agencies to quit the abuse, and whatever else a client may also need to improve the quality of life. They DO NOT provide medical (Dr/nurse, etc) sevices, but if needed a call to 9-1-1. A complete review was done of this facility, so more details can also be found there. Please LIKE and rate if this was found to be helpful to you. Also, if there are any other questions, please feel free to ask. Thank You and have a great day!!!

It's probably best to walk in

Do you need to make a appointment to get help with section 8?.,or help with moving into affordable housing ?.,because my bills are higher than my income.

Evette Daniels | Oct 27, 2021
Kat Versoza | Oct 27, 2021

If u go to the welcome center they can give u more info and resources to help with all that

No they don’t even though they will claim that they do. I’d highly suggest anyone that is looking for a place to stay not to go to ANY of the shelters provided by this organization based on the fact that they intentionally break their own rules

Kris Smith | Aug 23, 2021
Win Again | Aug 23, 2021

I’m looking for permanent housing would I have to live in a shelter first??

Imunique Jones | Aug 23, 2021
Brandon Hanner | Aug 23, 2021

No, but it would help. You need to be entered into the Coordinated Entry System to be housed. This system matcheds you to housing based on your SPDAT score; how long you have been homeless+ mental health/physical health history. Keep in mind that most housing non-profits in LA County are mental health companies that house homeless individuals with mental illness. Basically, you have to be mentally ill to be considered priority or it is very difficult to be housed through the CES.

Can you live there

Lovely Mamash | Aug 23, 2020
Winston Kingstro | Aug 23, 2020

PATH helps the homeless not only with housing but in other areas as well....Mental Health, transportation.....Shoannie or Ricardo are the Outreach Directors. Call and ask for them.....

Hello, I’m a single mother and I’m 8 months wondering if they help out with rent... I just need help for this coming month 😩

kanesha Murphy | Aug 23, 2020
Naomi Berris | Aug 23, 2020

As far as I know, the help provided is in house meaning that they don't provide assistance outside. They may provide assistance outside, and IF they do it would have to be AFTER you've become successfully housed through a relationship first and doesn't happen overnight. Otherwise your best bet would be to apply to DPSS (Department of Public Social Services) aka Welfare Office aka Los Angeles County General Assistance. Try calling 2-1-1 for the nearest office. You can even apply online now, but that way takes about 10 days. Applying in person takes 2-3 hours, but same day answers. 2-1-1 will also provide phone numbers for food and other resources. Just tell them your needs and they should be able to help. If you find this to be helpful, please LIKE and rate. THANK YOU!!!

Do u assist disable seniors that have become homeless?

Elizabeth I. Vaden | Aug 23, 2020
Naomi Berris | Aug 23, 2020

Age is not an issue. Young, middle-aged, or senior. There are criteria to meet as well as other requirements. However, not all have the same circumstances that caused a person to become homeless. The best thing to do is to immediately call the office from the number listed on their website which is shown on here as well as through a link on a previous review of mine. Or, through their website there's an email address independently and an email directly on their website. You can also go there in person to the business office on the Madison side and is located to the left of the client entrance (glass door is the client entrance) which are solid metal brown doors.

Do u need to make an appointment

Elizabeth I. Vaden | Aug 23, 2020
Naomi Berris | Aug 23, 2020

from who should be able to help. Their business hours are 9:00am - 5:00pm Monday - Friday. The office staff and others have all major holidays off and has just a "skeleton crew". The Southern door is for clients, and has large, clear glass windows with a secure intercom style entrance leading to a small "room" to access the only elevator and has nothing more than to access the elevator leading to the residential floors. Both business office doors are solid and secure. If this is found to be helpful, please LIKE and rate. THANK YOU!!!

How do you make an appointment? I will be moving to LA tomorrow but I don't have a place, or motel money. Thank you!

Shalanda Elise | Aug 23, 2020
Keith W | Aug 23, 2020

If you follow this info you will be addressed and even possibly seen the same day. Mon- Fri you can always show up here at Path and see one of the many case managers in the parking lot who are coming and going constantly. They will explain and direct you towards the help you need whether it's through path or a referral. They are the most caring and kindest social workers I have ever encountered.

How do I get ahold of Mike? the office just forwards my calls I need to get my ID from him and get into treatment

Azzii Bass | Aug 23, 2020
Naomi Berris | Aug 23, 2020

Really unsure of who Mike is. Although I've never used it, maybe use their website. Call the corporate number, but don't choose the option for Madison as it's rarely answered even from within the facility. If you are transferred when you call, respectfully, nicely, kindly, and hold your peace when calling and explain that the number transferred to for Mike doesn't work and to ask for direct help to ensure a connection. Otherwise, go there during business hours and go to the business office located to the left side of the client/resident entrance and ring the bell because then you'll get, or at least SHOULD get, immediate attention. And, with you being face-to-face, there's nowhere staff can go to avoid you in your request. But, go there with the right attitude since a demanding and commanding attitude will get you significantly less helpful cooperation. If this was helpful, please LIKE and rate. THANK YOU!!!

Why is there tapeworms in our food you feeding us and why do i keep getting food poisoning you want to see the worm

BAM BAM | Aug 24, 2019
Naomi Berris | Aug 24, 2019

Go see your Dr, or go to the ER. By law your Dr or ER MUST report it, IF it can be reasonably determined that it came from a certain source, and providing test results confirm it came from a food source. The report goes to the County Health Dept who very thoroughly investigates reports that are substantiated.
