This place does not bring equality at all. Somebody who has a background and has done worse than I am, can store food here and do as they please throughout the times of the facility because there in a program called R.O.P,. If somebody is in Safe Haven(Crisis), They can not bring in anything even though they did not make their life miserable with the law. Crisis attendants cannot go and get dressed because if their is no 'staff' on duty they can not. The tricky word is they say staff and their is always staff present but their innerbition to be lazy and not help, makes it that 'staff' is not there. But somebody who is known for shooting or stabbing someone... can. This place has no equality at all and these people dont really want to help you. Everything they do at the Covenant House is something you can do on your own without having their help at all. Its only helpful for living and food at times but regardless they do not want to help anybody who is here because the higher officials look down on you. Every single staff believes that you have a record and that you are here because you broke many laws, but you have not, your just homeless. Parents abandoned you and just because your 18-24, they really dont want to even have you around. Most of the time, staff is on their phone, interacting with the world instead of the human beings that are here. This place brings no equality and your words truly mean nothing to them so i suggest dont come here if you feel the need to speak. They'll just restrict you and then terminate you, just so you can re-do the process and come right back. Somebody here told staff "Im going to start recording MY OWN conversations for MY OWN safety". He came back that night and was restricted from going to his room because he wanted to protect HIS OWN SAFETY. This place looks down on you to hurt you, not build you. Being in this facility will crush your spirits and once you leave, you will not be the same. That cover letter they put up is to make you believe they are really trying to help... in certain area's, yes, but the whole 100, no. Do not come here unless you ABSOLUTELY NEED TO. Other than that, be your own person. Because the Covenant House Staff really does not care if you succeed, just get out of their faces.
HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS STREET CAMP !!!!! The staff TALK DOWN& CONDEMN the CHILDREN& ADOLESCENTS there who need GUIDANCE, STABILITY, ENCOURAGEMENT, AND HELP! Facilty staff tell the youth to show up there's a spot available & once they arrive the facility staff put the YOUTH back on the streets TO POSSIBLY END UP DEAD!!! This facility also TAKES YOUTH'S PERSONAL CLOTHING& BELONGINGS forgotten & IMMEDIATELY throws them away instead of possibly saving them incase they should return for belongings& STATE TO THEM THEY DONATED TO GOODWILL!!! Not EVEN CONSIDERING these poor youth barely have ANYTHING & are HOPELESS & HOMELESS!!! Some of the EMPLOYESS even told a parent THEY MAY BE BIAS & RACIST HERE & TREAT MANY OF THE YOUTH coming in UNFAIR & POORLY but THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD REALLY DO ABOUT IT because They ARE NOT higher up in managment!!!! They spoke of a 12 YEAR OLD GIRL that was there & knew nothing about the streets & they had her roomating with 18& 19 year old pregnant females who bullied her into running away with them on the streets one night where they were breaking into cars in a nearby neighborhood & ppl homes& the SHELTER NEVER CONTACTED THE LEGAL GARDIANS OR PARENTS TO INFORM THEM OF THIS OCCURRENCE!!! At THIS FACILITY the RESIDENTS ARE NOT being properly supervised or monitored!!!! Allegedly the staff, one by the name of RUDY was trying to have sexual affairs with some of the FEMALE YOUTH that would RESIDE& come thru the shelter!!!! Also the STAFF would take home the children& youth donations!!! Punishment for the youth would sometimes RESULT in staff denying them MEALS!!!!!! Some of the staff are INTRODUCING & PROVIDING THE CHILDREN& YOUTH WITH ILLEGAL DRUGS here at this shelter & THESE POOR YOUTH LEAVE MORE HOPELESS& IN WORSE SHAPE THAN THEY CAME!!! This is ASHAME that ADMINISTRATION & CORPORATE was made aware & notified of ALL BEHAVIOR& ISSUES& DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to retify or RESOLVE the issues!!!!! I WOULD NEVER EVER RECCOMEND THIS PLACE FOR A PET LET ALONE A CHILD OR ADOLESCENT!!!! NO WAYYY!!!!! The staff are UNPROFFESIONAL, RUDE& OBNOXIOUS & it is VERY DISTRUBING some of the YOUTH'S stories about their VISIT OR STAY AT THIS STREET CAMP called a YOUTH SHELTER!!!!! People who are donating& investing NEED to know exactly what their investing in& if its actually going for the CAUSE & PURPOSE INTENDED!!! To help the YOUTH & not FUND THE STAFF.
This place brings bad kids into our neighborhood and all they do is cause trouble.. smoke weed at park by my house and throw trash everywhere..all they're are criminals.
