Maybe you're new to the area or just haven't had a reason to come in contact with this organization…read moreso let me share this tidbit from their website. "We provide quality food and groceries to hungry individuals across our 30 county service area. Since 1982, we've distributed more than 250 million pounds of food and fed more than 14 million people." So why am I talking about them? Because I recently had the privilege of volunteering at their food bank. "Bank" should honestly be replaced with "warehouse" because that is exactly what it is. They have boxes for food and drinks coming in (by the pallet) and boxes ready to sort then boxes that have been packed up and ready to ship across the region. And this place is systemic. You have a job and they show you how to do that job as well as be available for questions. I have served at and taken groups to a number of food warehouses and soup kitchens throughout my life. This, by far, is one of the best organized ones I have encountered. The instructions will tell you, but let me say it again. Wear comfortable shoes and comfortable clothes. Prepare to sweat and know that you may have to lift up to 20 pounds. Feeding people isn't always easy, but it is always worth it. Find a way to support. *Insider's Tip -Volunteer either at the Food Bank or the Master's Table (a once-a-day meal providing location downtown). But there is a process so check out the website for instructions.

I can remember spending my youth in the gym, at the track, or just running around the area. This park is usually bustling with people and different activities. They added a pool in recent years so they are things going on there as well. There is also a senior center located here too. My grandmother would spend her days creating great ceramic artwork while she was here. I love that this place has something for the whole family to enjoy. The track is pretty large and normally filled with people getting in shape or trying to stay in shape. There is a basketball court here as well. I would spend my days sometimes watching others play and cheering them on!!! I haven't been here in years but I'm sure this place is still a great place for the whole family!!!!

They are not professional AT ALL. 90% of their staff are ghetto and treat these poor women that are trying to get help like CRAP. I've heard them snap on her for the smallest things like asking about being on the grocery list to asking about her getting her papers signed. I'm talking about complete cussing and yelling at her infront of other residents embarrassing her to the point of crying. She is afraid to let the director know because others have reported this same problem and it seems like all of them stick together and lie for each other. And that isn't the only biggest issue on the staff, there is another nightmare that has been addressed MULTIPLE TIMES and has BeenVerified looked. One of the older house mothers that work here has been caught taking the blankets off these women that are undressed and ASLEEP in their beds at night and she will stand over them and just STARE AT THEM. She has touched residents and made inappropriate comments as well. THIS IS SICK. I do not understand for the life of me why this woman has not been fired yet. If you are an official reading this please help these ladies. Another thing - there is NO FOOD BEING COOKED FOR THEM ON THE WEEKENDS. If your family member or you do not have the funds for food good luck eating over the weekend because there is NO ONE there cooking. This used to be an amazing rehab when Dr.A was there about 5 years ago because I myself went there and since she left this place has turned into a DUMP. I've also been informed that they push suboxone and methadone on the girls here and many of them abuse and sell their medications. There IS NO RECOVERY HERE. I'm BEGGING you please DO NOT send your loved ones to this free rehab because they WILL NOT get the love, care, respect, treatment or environment that they need..

Her water broke in the room and she returned... after 3 days... to it still there. The room was untouched. Thats disgusting and ridiculous! When she asked for help, there was no compassion. She was expected to figured things out for herself... and she could barely move around... she's been bound to a wheelchair for weeks. I understand this is a nonprofit so certain regulations must be put into place to accommodate large numbers but cleaning a struggling pregnant ladies room after she's been thru hell to deliver a baby is the absolute LEAST that I expect.
