The faculty there could care less about the women that depend upon them. You come to them in state of brokenness, and their mission is to keep you there. The only thing cared about at Sojourner Truth House is whether you attend group sessions, and how many donations they can collect. The case managers (Pam Key and others) are indifferent to the the struggles of their clients, and have a serious lack of empathy. They dangle the promise of helping with furniture and housing, but the time you could be using in search of employment, or housing must be spent in useless group sessions to receive someone else’s hand me down furniture and/or no housing.

You can receive pantry staples from the food pantry once a month if you live in Gary and have proof of residency. You can also receive toiletries and household items every 90 days once you qualify as a client. However, you have to be homeless and reside in one of the four local shelters that they serve and satisfactorily complete classes and other program requirements in order to receive furniture when you are securely housed.
