ATTENTION VETERANS! DO NOT VOLUNTEER WITH THE VETERANS ADMINISTRATION REPRESENTATIVE PAYEE PROGRAM! IT IS CONTRACTED TO COLUMBUS HOUSE AND I STRONGLY URGE YOU TO TAKE A PASS! ONCE YOU SIGN THE PAPERS YOUR RIGHTS ARE FORFEIT. THE VETERANS ADMINISTRATION WILL NOT AND CANNOT INTERCEDE ON YOUR BEHALF.

Veteran and your Family I warn you if you ever go to this place they will kick you and your family and kids out on the street. The worker and her manager kick my husband who is a Veteran out with his wife cause the work there had a beef with me cause, when our nice and gentle worker left they don't share paperwork so we had to do double shift just to please them. Yes we do have document of everything that had said in writing and email and yet this new worker thinks cause she works there she can choose and pick who can be eligible for their program. So find yourself a Lawyer and stand up we are tried of who gets picked and who stay out in the cold. yeah try Modelling you learn how to be nice to people. here a book of me you can find on Amazon enjoy.

There is no rooms, you have emergency beds and LOS bed where you pay 90 to 130 for a cubical w/ small closet. Just adhere to the rules and you should do good. Don't expect a hotel. Do what you need to things will go sweet

It WILL take some TIME.... But if you go NOW... You might just be in your own home for Christmas

What's the best time I should be there to ensure shelter for the night in order to avoid sleeping on the streets

Ted Bush | Sep 27, 2018
Daidra Pearson | Sep 27, 2018

It does not work like that. You will not be able to just get shelter for the night at the Columbus house. You can seek emergency shelter at the mens only shelter on grand Avenue across from ferraros supermarket. You have to call 211 and do an intake then they will put you on a waiting list. Best regards.
