She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's not much longer after that. She has been a member of the Alzheimer's Family Center of Huntington Beach since 2023 and I continually ask her "Do you like the Family Center?" and she always responds "Yes!". The Family Center has a staff that is caring and personable beyond reproach. They show genuine care for our loved ones. Her Neurologist has been pleasantly surprised on the last several visits because she has not detected the decline in her that was expected. I attribute much of that to loving care, engagement and social interaction that the Family Center provides for my loved one.

Having an autistic toddler is like having a conjoined twin. I've called Olive Crest twice a week for over a year in desperation for help, and they promise to help only to ghost you! Months back, my health took a turn, and I literally begged Nicole months for help. The last three month my health has been at its worst. The hospital has tried to admit me countless times, but Nicole plays games only to ghost you. She only does her job when a third party contacts her about the concerns. Olive Crest has amazing host families, but the staffing and favoritism are killing the organization.

It's just take a little time and effort and with a community of people you can help many more out there. Today our immediate group put together 2400 boxes to help 2400 families. It's a group effort indeed as different groups help out in different areas. We put together boxes and send them into the production assembly line where others put into the boxes nutritional items and then they are sealed shut and stacked onto pallets which are eventually transported to pantries around the area and or delivered directly to individuals. Elementary students up to adults help out. You can signup your group to take on a weekend for a great cause. You also can do it for student credit for like when colleges want to see how well rounded you are and how you impact your community. It's fun and you meet new people.

Thus, repairs, basic, essential services like pest control and plumbing issues routinely took a week to several months to resolve while apparently he negotiated prices for work orders. And they took as much as NINETEEN MONTHS to be fulfilled! Myself having worked in the apartment leasing industry at up to 400 unit complexes, have NEVER seen such lengthy neglect to provide service to the tenants and the physical apartment issues! The rental business is firstly a PEOPLE business, which people pay rent to the landlord in order to lease the unit premises. Further, KM also stole a total of $85,000 from two tenants while I was there or shortly before. They SHOWED me their boxes of many receipts. Each of them and other tenants had pending or considered lawsuits against KM and the property management company and AFH. After I left, one of them sent me several messages in extensive detail articulating that KM quickly threw some things into his pickup and drove away before law enforcement (sheriffs) could arrest him. (Ironically, he had been accepted into the LAPD academy. But I don't think he's there now. Do you? Lol). And he at 6'4", 350-400 lbs. he was an intimidating bully, and yielded his physicality very readily, including an assault upon me, for which I am considering a lawsuit for intentional infliction of emotional distress. However, I do feel sorry for the tenants who remained who may have lost their apartment homes due to the apparently epic shake up after the collapse of the then landlord's ownership. Had I more choices, I would have avoided Casa Paloma Apartments as I was told to do on my third day there by an elderly couple as they exited.

After I have looked more in depth at American family housing I find it there are people who are…read morethankful for them for what they have done for them but these people have dealt with American family housing 3 years ago some longer management has changed the atmosphere amongst the people have changed within the employees and management staff and not for the better. I've spoken with employees who will rename name this for fear of losing their jobs and I have been told that the organization itself was about doing good for those in need helping those get stable housing get their feet back on the ground get gainful employment with a roof over their head but if you notice I had used the word was American family housing was at one point doing all they can for those in need and the key word there is was they are no longer that many families will what come forth and say so as well the living conditions that they are having to live in some said that it's inhabitable but they stay because they have no other options nor the resources for help the funding that these type of places receive is enormous with only about 30% of their funding received as being used for the purpose that's been given for so where does the rest go the other 70% I'll tell you where it goes It goes in the pockets of those in higher positions within American family housing it goes in their bank accounts to their enormous houses luxurious cars very expensive business lunches and so on sooner or later someone will recognize American family housing for what they are and that is selfish greedy and what I would call opportunistic they jump on the opportunity to get funding donations whatever you could think of at the misfortune of those in need and those people who are in need they accept what they're giving because it's more than what they had they don't see the fact that they could be getting so much more to help their daily lives become better so they take what they can get and accept it because they don't want to lose what they have now they don't want every percussion to fall back on them for speaking out the truth on what they deal with with American family housing. I encourage anyone reading this interview and other interviews about American family housing to not take my word for this do not take the word of others who left reviews who have filed complaints who have given negative feedback or even positive in that matter but to look at it yourself and see what is there and what American family housing is really all about I will tell you it's not about the community and those in need it's about the bank accounts of those higher up it's about the bottom dollar.

But mine only relates to donating. I've donated a few times with them. Its all been very positive. It happened to be when I would call and ask what was needed, someone always answered the phone and assisted me (again, just my experience). I donated the items, and each time they gave me the standard tax exemption forms. I plan to head there sometime soon to donate clothing. Hope it will again be a good experience. If its not, I will come back here to share.

Not to mention I've had mail stolen from them & they packed all my belongings in my room without my consent & they lost my W2 FORM.

When there was a problem with a staff member falsely accusing me of drug use (I had been in the hospital the night before and I had proof), Je'net Kreitner made the situation right instead of standing up for staff member's accusation. That has stayed with me especially since I've been in two shelters with unethical staff members who treat their program guests badly. While Grandma's House of Hope can be a little strict with their program, I always felt safe while I stayed there and NEVER felt bullied by staff or the one in charge of the temporary shelter. I would rather pay a program fee than stay at an abusive temporary shelter for free. Assuming the program is similar now to how it was when I stayed there in 2017-2018 you'll be in good hands. You do get assigned chores but you'll never fear for your safety here and they keep their word. If they allowed me to go back I would in a heartbeat as I am in a temporary bind again (after my dad sold the house)! However, I'm a Buena Park resident and things changed due to COVID I'm assuming so I had to stay in a Buena Park shelter instead. Thank you Grandma's House of Hope!
