I just dropped off a pair of shoes that the staff was excited about because it could help a resident with an interview tomorrow. They were talking about who got to deliver it! Heartwarming to say the least.

Director should be fired as he was no help and left marks on individual called his client. He was supposely suppose to help but lies to many and then makes false accusations. The staff is semi professional as some good and others not and need training. Food was horrible as we had to eat out or use our card to buy food our bodies could stomach. Chores were insane when you had disabilities. Lots of bullying and favoritism. Rooms are bunks and ours wasnt completely clean as you saw bugs in the kitchen. Only some did their chores and others found their way out from doing the chores leaving it on others to do.

I am a student, and I've seen the families there. I love how everyone takes on their responsibilities. It's a great place for families who have nothing
