RCIL and Do Drop In - Thursday, May 23, 2019: waiting area.

RCIL and Do Drop In

(2 reviews)

I went here Thursday, May 23, 2019. I had seen them on a Pets of the Homeless referral flier, and I…read morehad never heard of them, so I thought I would check them out and see what they had to offer. I met Dee Dee, who is the director of the two organizations, and receives no salary. She answered my numerous question and gave me a tour. She is a very motherly and pleasant person in her 60's or 70's who has been in Carson City since 1969 I think she said This is actually two organizations under one roof and management: the Rural Center for Independent Living (RCIL), which used to be on Fairview Street, has independent branches all over the country; and the Do Drop In (a day center for homeless and low income people, who need a respite in the day time). What their office does is basically connect people with services, like finding vocational rehab if you are disabled and want to work, or helping homeless people fill out housing and energy assistance applications. They also have a small food, clothing, toiletry, and pet supply pantry; as well as some warm and ready-made food for people in need. You can go there during the day to rest up, watch TV, get coffee, use the restroom, or grab a bite to eat. They are open from 9 AM to 3 PM weekdays. Supposedly, according to their sign, they also go to the farmer's market in Carson City on Saturdays during the season. This organization is also all volunteer. Dee Dee said they are not rich like other Carson City organizations such as FISH, the Ron Wood Family Resource Center, or the Salvation Army. She said other RCIL's get funding, but for some reason, she said they are considered the ugly step-child and get no money. And they get no Federal, state, or local funds either. That is why their offices are small and sort of run down, from my tour. Dee Dee also said that not getting funding is also good in a way, as there is a lot less bureaucracy to deal with, and they can do things more quickly, their own way. To help with funds, they are having an Italian Feed fundraiser on Friday, May 31, 2019 from 5 PM to 8 PM at the Governor's Mansion at 606 Mountain Street in Carson City. They are having a dinner, entertainment, raffles, silent auction, and a wine bottle ring toss. Tickets are $20. You can get more info, reserve a seat, or volunteer/donate at 775-301-6929. Please see the Yelp event that I created: https://www.yelp.com/events/carson-city-italian-feed-fundraiser?utm_campaign=www_event_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct). You can tell Dee Dee's passion. As I came in, she was on a phone call with a client, and spend at least the next 20 minutes with her while I waited. She told the client to call her back on her cell phone number, which she gave out, every two days until she found a solution. The client, a medical assistant, was looking for a job, health insurance, and anything else. Some of the info she gave out of the phone or while talking to me was incorrect, such as there is a fine if you don't have health insurance in Nevada (in fact, the Federal government ended that after tax year 2018), or there is a long waiting list for housing at Foothill Gardens (a low-income HUD project-based voucher housing complex in Carson City). She was also unfamiliar with Spanish and did not know how to pronounce a client, named "Dulce"'s name. I told her it meant "sweet" in Spanish. My father had the same problem when he first moved to California in the 70's and called the place "Luh Joe-luh" instead of "La Jolla" [la hoya]. Dee Dee believes in housing first and scatter-site housing. She is also is angry rents have gone up so much recently in Carson City and wants to get the municipality to do something. On the tour I saw a small day room with a TV and a homeless man sleeping on the couch. She showed me their small food pantry and toiletry pantry. She opened their refrigerator and freezer where I saw items like ready-made salads donated from Trader Joe's. She also has a crock pot so clients can always get a warm bite to eat. That days, there was potato soup. She made very little eye contact with me while giving me the tour, tending to things instead that she found. There was a single bathroom next to the kitchen area, which was small. The entry room where I waited was like a throwback from the 80's. I saw a huge boombox with two cassette decks. I also saw old, worn-out, and mismatched furniture there, like the kind you would see at your grandparents' house in the 70's or 80's. I will be honest: I was almost scared to sit down there, for fear of bed bugs. The front room/office was also super cluttered, with all kinds of file cabinets, garden hoses, Christmas lights, donated clothing, and everything else you can imagine packed in everywhere around the chairs and desk. Regardless of the negatives above, this organization does good work on very little funds and is all volunteer. The people their are passionate about helping people. That is all that matters.

I'm…read moretalking 60+ people fed for a couple hours straight, tacos, beans, rice, and a chips/salsa/guacamole bar loaded with every fixing you could want. It never once felt rushed or like they were running low, flawless execution at scale. The steak and al pastor tacos stole the show. Tasty, authentic, the real deal, people were going back for seconds and probably more. More than one guest told me it was the best taco spread they'd had in Tahoe. Josh himself is a huge part of why this was so memorable, working the crowd, friendly with every single guest, making a party of 60 feel personal. I told him to bring a costume for the occasion and he showed up fully committed, which tells you everything about how he runs this business. If you're feeding a big group anywhere in the Lake Tahoe Basin/Lost Sierra area, stop your search right now and book Olympicos. Hands down the best catering experience we've had and I am already telling our whole Tahoe crew to use them for everything going forward. Appreciate y'all. -Dan

First off I have to say that Josh obviously cares a lot about his customers and his food. It's…read moreobvious by the way he took care of me. I had three Carne Asada tacos and they were some of the best tacos that I've had. I know Olympic Valley is pricey, it is a resort town. But his food truck is a nice addition and much cheaper than the food in the village. There was one Customer in front of me, Josh asked me what I was driving, and when the tacos were prepared, he brought them out to my car. The meat was not only cooked perfectly, but the spices were perfect. The meat was not dry at all, and it was a good mix of spices and just the right amount of cilantro. There were some grilled red onions, that added a nice sweetness. I've never had red onions on my tacos, but from now on, they will be the go to. The tacos were served with salsa Verde. It had the right amount of spice and tartness. Probably from tomatillos. There was also sour cream on the side. Delicious and presented well. I recommend trying them the next time you go skiing. When I stop by next time, I will find out if tacos are available in the summertime. I've only been here in the winter.

I especially enjoyed talking to some of the vendors who shared about how the association directly impacted them and their experiences with the Association completely changed the trajectory of their lives. I also want to give a special shout out to Emily who was kind enough to share her story and tell me more about the programs. I have so much admiration for her passion and all the work she does throughout the year. Each and every vendor was incredible from the unique cocktails to the delicious food! I especially loved Taylor's enthusiasm at 1864, the lamb lollipops at Reno Bar and grill were cooked to perfection, R Town will always be a pizza favorite, and I can't think of a more balanced sweet treat created by Chef Travis from Centro!!

David…read moreand his team were professional, organized, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The food was one of the things our guests talked about most after the wedding. Everything was served fresh, hot and exactly as expected. There was more than enough food for everyone, and we never had to worry about stations running low or guests not getting enough to eat. The appetizers were the star of the show and an absolute hit. They disappeared almost as quickly as they came out, and we received countless complements throughout the evening on how delicious they were. David and his team handled everything seamlessly behind the scenes, and we are grateful for the role they played in making our celebration so memorable. Thank you!!!

We were hungry, and the sandwich options sounded appealing. I decided to order a BBQ Brisket sandwich, a Chili Dog, and a Shredded Chicken Sandwich. The man operating the truck and taking orders was very helpful and friendly. The young man working behind the grill was equally pleasant. Since I was the last customer of the day, he was outside wrapping things up. Juggling all my food, I asked him if he could help me add some mustard to the chili dog, and he immediately agreed. He grabbed the mustard and asked me to let him know when to stop! The sandwiches were delicious, and we enjoyed every last bite. If you're in the area, I highly recommend looking them up; you'll love their food!

The place was clean, quiet, warm, and felt very home-y. If you don't already know, the Ronald McDonald House Charities provide lodging and food (among others) for families whose loved ones are going through medical condition/treatments. Not only do they offer a home (away-from-home) but they have also set up a 'room' in the hospitals, so that families can find comfort and support as they go through some of the toughest times of their lives. The RM House accepts donations in various forms. Our favorite way to support them is by following them on FB, and keep an eye for their "wishlist Wednesday". That's when they post a request for specific items, such as cleaning products, household supplies, snacks, etc. This way they get exactly what they need. Please feel free to check it out. They also organize fundraising events like the RMHC Golf Tournament and the highly anticipated YELP'S Home Away From Home Event to be held in June 2017. My husband and I believe in the good work that the RMHC is doing and providing in our community. I've personally witnessed the tremendous help they gave to a couple of families we know. I'm sure there are countless other families who feel very grateful to have their space and support. Hopefully, the Reno community recognizes the importance of having RMHC around and help them as they continue to keep families together in a warm and wonderful home-away-from-home.
