I'm professional woman experiencing displacement and my children are being withheld…read moreinappropriately. I'm self-supporting by my own income all of the time up until this week and if you off days where my income did not align with a bill. I'm a woman with poor credit who lives a Christian lifestyle my fundamentals are. I have the capability to advocate for myself I can speak in a manner that gets my words across and I can communicate my needs, however there have been days in my medical journey or my mental health journey where I could not communicate my needs to the hospital I could not communicate my needs to social work I could not communicate my needs prior to learning about what they were. The reason I am so openly willing to share this information is because my experience here at this space is that as a woman who can understand what's going on around her and can use her words to ask for what she needs I am still unable to receive a safe situation based on protocol. I'm not a woman who's experienced homelessness for years or been an addiction or run the streets so I'm a woman exiting my home to the space in an emergency crisis situation, for women who have been made to jump through hoops for years to receive basic necessities I cannot imagine how they are treated and the situations they deal with if they do not have the words to respond appropriately or the connections to reach out to safely. Never in my life have I felt so disrespected or physically demeaned in a professional setting outside of the county jail on an occasion when I was there improperly . There is nowhere to appropriately send this message so that is why it is public because I would rather say with my name or stay with my voice what is wrong in a situation then leave it be for others who are more vulnerable at risk than my own self. Being displaced for my means and my home and having poor credit and no financial support does not mean I lose my respect card I've been coming here for a period of 6 to 9 months while supporting myself in temporary housing without the DHA this emergency crisis situation does not a lot staff permission to put me in my place or teach me a lesson for there is none for them to teach me and they do not know my history. I believe it is a lack of continued education or a lack of proper training lack of understanding or maybe you burn out maybe it is a lack of funding and a lack of staff. I have never asked to use an additional service outside of my qualifications and that is exactly what it is a place like this it is a service to the community and the members of the community. Also my experience thus far has been a lot of assumption based treatment. As an adult who is not on any probation parole no stipulation no CPS and no criminal charges pending I do expect to be treated as an honest woman which is how I present in my community and how I am with my loved ones as well as professionally

I lived in a very violent part of the city, so going to a place to escape all that while being able to study, hang out with friends and make new ones was amazing for my youth development. Fast forward to now, and I had move here to Central Valley with my family, after finding out through a Chamber of Commerce flyer we had one right here in Manteca. I went over to meet the staff and learn about what this location had to offer. For a membership price of $60 a year, my kids had access to homework assistance, STEM activities, Taekwondo 2 day of the week, Local Sports such as basketball, soccer and football. You couldn't find a better placed $60 dollars, and I know this as my children spend way more on Robux and Fortnite skins. I had also learned the staff is trained to handle children with ASD and ADHD which is another plus for those parents who aren't certain about putting their children in an unknown setting. They allow a day pass trial before you sign up so if youre curious to see how your kids about it, have them check it out and then talk about it on the car ride home. There are tremendous social benefits to being a member of the Boys and Girls club, and this location's staff is very friendly and welcoming.

Me, among other customers who were shopping, got to listen to an immature. Unprofessional rant from the lady apparently in charge. One of the employees father is dying, and they didn't come to work. "I don't care her dad is dying! You come to work! At least call!" Direct quote...to the other store employees. She then got on the phone to (apparently) her boss to rant about how she wants to terminate this lady who's dad is dying for not showing up.. (see? I know the whole story! A customer! Does this place not have a private office?) I don't do well with places who treat their employees that way...publicly on the floor no less! I'm apalled. The only one who should lose her job is that woman in charge!

Their proceeds benefit the Stockton Shelter for the homeless which is a very good cause. They offer very creative specials and deals, and many shoppers here are regulars. Clothing (and other departments) is always well organized; sizes are in the correct spaces. I heard that they were to close Feb 16 of 2018, but have not been there to see if it was true. If so, it is a great loss to Stockton, particularly those from here and other cities than enjoy shopping at thrift and second hand stores. They sure did a great job running this well-managed store at Hammer Ranch Plaza, for years. We donated household goods clothing, newspapers (for wrapping breakables) and plastic bags for years, and they were always extremely appreciative. I hope that all employees find good jobs elsewhere.
