I just want to share my gratitude for Switchpoint. I was never a resident however they allowed us to start a Narcotics Anonymous meeting there which helps me feel purpose in my life knowing that I get to contribute back to society by helping others. If you know anyone who needs recovery from addiction we meet every Thursday in the community room at switchpoint at 7:30 pm. It is in the front of the building, 1st floor. We had picnic function there last weekend and it was such a blessing to cook and feed so many people and then carry the message of recovery there. Thank you Switchpoint for giving us NA members the opportunity to serve by allowing us to have a meeting there. We are truly grateful and excited to see our higher power work in many lives. Ps: Because I see first hand what switch Point is doing to help others I make it a personal priority to bring my donations to thier thrift stores. They are in the business of truly helping others!

Hey Y'all, if you haven't discovered the magical thrifting experience of the Switchpoint thrift stores, you're missing out on a fun treasure hunt. Great staff, excellent pricing, and the inventory constantly updating. Found a gorgeous black dress for my daughter to perform in for orchestra. ALSO, a shout out to the Switchpoint small engine repair shop. Great pricing, super honest and thorough. They went the extra mile on my John Deere ride-on mower. They even got creative and fixed my seat up so that it looks new. So glad they could resurrect my awesome mower. THanks a million to a well organized staff that gives so much to the community! I LOVE donating to them as well!

Incompetence, negligence, neglect, and abuse, discrimination, mal pheasants, stitching....must be shut down due to behavior issues of the UTMOST DISRESPECT, LIES, DICETE, AND POLITAL INJUSTICE OF STAFF BLATENTLY HARRASSING, INTERFEARING, SCRUTINIZING, INSTIGATION, TAUNTING, AND HURTING THOSE WHO ARE VULNERABLE. Crustal, Patty, Dacon, Rabecca, Cody Sanders, and other negligent employees are directly responsible for Matthew Jay Hansells difference of his RIGHT to housing, higene, nutrition, safety, clothing, health problems, and severe difference at others expense throughout the entire Saint George Community and beyond which includes NY, Chicago, LA, and other parts of the World Pandemic population. Abolition!!! I was mistreated, lied to, and abused by the Switchpoint staff. This for profits company is receiving huge lump some monies donated by many mostly Mormon contributors, and not spending the proceeds for the helpful uses they claim to offer. The organization is a scam, and outrageous cheat πŸ˜’ to those in desperate need of homelessness, and the repercussions there of. The facility is constantly filthy, germ infested, a breading ground for sicknesses, disease, COVID-19, and other contagious illnesses. The grounds as well as the front intake office, and dorm rooms have bed bugs, πŸͺ° Flys, roaches, and rodents. The a/c barely works. Most of the washer, and dryers in the laundry room are broken, and have been for years. Garbage and cigarette buts are strewn everywhere. Most of the residents are not only homeless, but criminals with a record, junkies, and codependent. After being threatened by another resident of my life, I was outed from the property, and denied; food, housing, higene, and respect. Instead, the staff allowed the felon who threatened me to stay. This a result of the ironic mistreatment that Switchpoint has become famous for, as a dumping ground, and disgrace to the city of St. George. Shut them down, and build something beneficial please. Thanks, but no thanks...

Hi, me and my girlfriend are experiencing homelessness. We have one service dog and one cat who is also a service animal because of PTSD. We were in an abusive situation and feel like we have no options because of the animals. Could we stay here?

Cyrus Aldred | Jul 26, 2022
Ryan Jentzsch | Jul 26, 2022

Emotional Support animals do not fall under the AMA definition of service animals. If the animals are legitimately service animals then they are allowed in shelter. If not Switchpoint has an affiliate org called Bed & Biscuits that could board your animals while you are in the shelter.

Mersadee Thomas | Oct 24, 2021
Tammarra Foote | Oct 24, 2021

I don't believe they do... They will help with food, housing you, finding a job and I'm pretty sure they will help you with utilities! But, every situation is different? They are good not to judge or categorize you which was helpful for me. I would definitely talk to someone there! Good luck!

What is considered proof of Income to apply for food .

Darla Bushhead | Oct 25, 2019
SunShine A | Oct 25, 2019

If you have any income that you get monthly, yearly, quarterly weekly, it don't matter; provide that documentation. If you have no income; you provide information that you have zero income. They will verify and it's not a big deal. Submit the information pertaining to income. For example : provide child support documentation, ORS documentation, welfare- Workforce Services, alimony & any earned income. Hope this helps. Melodie
