They talk to the residents like there from another planet I worked there for two weeks and was let go because some of staff didn't like the fact that I was so open and comfortable with everyone and to top it off I didn't receive my last paycheck cause they didn't even consider to check to see if I worked didn't even call me to let me know why I was let go I called to speak to the lady was in charge to try and discuss why I couldn't come back to work and never did respond I hope none of my family members never have to experience this place they are very disrespectful to the people that are trying to get into this place with there unfortunate situation they are experiencing very sad I don't know who is helping funding this place but you have some very immature supervisors that I wouldn't pay them nothing at all as far as I'm concerned you wouldn't believe the way this place is being ran omg worst I've ever seen

I haven't ever been inside the place myself but I know a lot of people here from work. It's definitely a good resource for people who out of resources and need help. I hear it's not the most ideal place to be but it's a dry place to rest your head if you need to get back on your feet. They have lots of connections for employment.

My mother is homeless and needs help find a place can you help please ?

The Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky is currently only able to house about 30 people a night because of recent strict enforcement of fire code regulations. People unable to get in at 5:30 are allowed to return at 9 pm for possible shelter at an offsite location. They're great people, and I'm sure they'll do whatever they can to help your Mother. In the meantime you might contact Welcome House of Northern Kentucky. They also assist homeless individuals, women in particular.

From November through March it is an emergency cold shelter for both men and women 18 and older. You cannot leave your belongings. From May through October it's a men's transitional program. You have to apply to get in and you can leave your belongings.
