    The building
    Papyrus A.

    I gotta give this place a low rating. At base, it's not that bad a shelter, but for everything they demand of the client for what little they offer, that's what makes it poor quality. It's really messed up this is the only shelter in town, too. They do a urine and breath test at the door. Jesus turned water into wine, didn't it? He may not have been turnt, but he drank. They require Id, which is very messed up for a broader town. Jesus was an "illegal" immigrant. he wouldn't have had an id. Is one of those missions in the name of Jesus, but wouldn't let Jesus in if he came looking for shelter. Also I can't stay for more than 1 night without ID. You can't stay more than 10 days out of the month without entering into a program. They also kick disabled people out, and make disabled people leave the building during the day. The beds aren't that comfortable. It's a bulk bed situation, with metal springs and a gym mat. A pro is that we can use padding or gets more blankets to pad, if we need... but can the shelter just get better mats or different bulk beds? This place does provide other services, which seem to be decent but the emergency shelter needs a lot of work! Monday through Friday staff turns on the lights and yells in client's rooms at 5am when we don't have to leave until 8am. A few days before I left, 8 is Kama a staff went into a client's purse without her consent or supervision. She saw something sticking out of the client's purse, pulled it out, and said "she can ask her this back" inreally snarky tone. Also, most of the food wasn't good. It depends who was cooking, but they usually have people that don't know how to cook with what they have. I understand that most of the food is donated, but that's not an excuse. Better Cooks can work with not- so- fresh ingredients. I asked them for the wifi password, and they said they don't give it out because the clients are supposed to be using the internet. I asked for clarification and got ignored. Internet access is a basic need (as declared by W. Bush - which making the ACP), so they're flexing on restricting people from a basic need. People are having issues accessing their own phone signal inside the building, so it's a restriction. They also consider cell phone use a privilege. Phone access is not a privilege and it's dehumanizing to have that. The rules use a lot of demoralizing Verbage, in general. I even had to sign a "CERTIFICATE OF HOMELESSNESS". Very branding language. There's also a staff member that. Goes out of her way to make life harder for the clients, and instead of firing her, the lady that runs the program/ building jokes about her. How people are treated is a joke in this facility. There needs to be more shelters in Yuma to accommodate people with different needs, breaking the monopoly, so they would be pressured into treating people better. People are afraid to complain about them for fear of retaliation, and that shouldn't be a thing at all! This shelter is not worth all the rules and regulations it has. They need competition, and the people of Yuma need more services. Homelessness is a systematic failure, that person should not be punished for. In the name of Jesus, do right by our more marginalized population. The homeless are the most dehumanized, demoralized, and scapegoated population. Jesus would be our here protecting them, not making them jump through hoops. Being homeless is hard enough!

    I lost my cats, so I adopted a 5 year old from YHS. They was so backed up that I took home…read more"Tootsie" unsprayed. Took months to get an appointment. But she got pregnant and had a litter of 6. 5 tortoiseshell and one Ginger.

    Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for the services the humane society of yuma offers, but I think…read morethey are so unfortunately drowned and blindsided by the horrid state of unclaimed animals that they forget there are people out there who do love their animals. People who want to be there for their animals in their most vulnerable moments. I am writing this review on behalf of my mother, who took our beloved family cat to the humane society to be put to rest for their low cost services. We appreciate the humane society for offering these services, however we were appalled when she was told she could not hold our cat as he was put the sleep. Vets across the world all say the same thing, that euthanasia can be scary for your pet, and how devastating it is when pet parents don't want to be with their animal when they pass. The final thing they see and feel, is being in your arms or presence. The humane society of yuma does not care that the last thing your pet sees is a team of strangers giving them their lethal injection. They do not care for the owners who step up and want to hold their beloved pet for their final moments. It is their policy to not allow you to truly say goodbye. However, years ago, they had no problem forcing me into their surgical room to retrieve my non-aggressive but shy dog from a kennel, WHILE ACTIVELY PERFORMING STERILIZATION ON ANOTHER ANIMAL. But that's policy, right??? I hope that they improve this policy and if they are going to offer these low cost services, maybe have some compassion for those who do care for and love their pets. Side note that it ended up costing the same as if we had taken our cat to the actual vet, as they charged an additional $35 just to shove his post mortem paw in some clay for a keepsake. Should have just gone to the vet so he could be held for his final moments with multiple included keepsakes instead. Hindsight is 20/20.
