Too many chiefs. The director of 402 n stlouis Ave. Needs to take a sensitivity class I've been here 6 months. Being observant seeing for myself I've noticed that the Director # Nicki as her name she never has introduced herself. But I've seen everything that is directed is negative. Nothing up lifting comes from her. It's always a command. Do this Do that. Don't get me wrong I been help a lot by breakthrough but her attitude could use some adjustments. # mean spirited

This reads like a review, but you posted it under the question and answer section, not as a review. Perhaps you'd care to fix that?

Alexis you can go to 10 S.Kedzie or wherever there is a Department of human services and ask for a referral to Breakthrough ministries 3330 S.Carroll...Its an all day shelter for single women.You may stay for 6 months or longer as long as you are looking for work and housing.You do have chores,you eat 3 times a day,and there is a Doctor that comes twice a week. Its a safe haven and very clean.

Hello my name is Joseph I'm 31 yrs old and have been homeless for quite a while now I do work but not at a normal 9to5 I really need to get into a shelter ASAP where and when do I have to sign up to get on waiting list thx

joseph cole | Sep 26, 2018
Vanessa Robinson | Sep 26, 2018

First thing u gotta do is go to 10S.Kedzie room 200 and get a homeless letter, once u get that then go to BREAKTHROUGH with ID and get and interview, and if there is a bed available they will give it to you, if not u will be put on the waiting list but they will try and find u shelter for the night! That's all I can tell u of course the women's shelter is probably the same process!

america walton | Sep 26, 2017
Kimberly Mandera | Sep 26, 2017

Yes. Go to 10 s kedzie Now and ask for a referral to breakthrough. She'll go for an intake interview and be put on a waitlist which will not be long. But start the process now because she wants to get on the list ASAP. They will give her a place to live with meals and lots of help with housing and other resources.
