Everyone gets "CASS cough," a long-lasting respiratory illness. The ventilation ducts and ceilings are caked with years of built-up crud. If you've have breathing problems expect them to get worse there. Case managers aren't much help, except for giving you useless "resources." Security staff are relentlessly rude and will put out the person on the receiving end of a scuffle rather than the instigator. SMDH! Expect to jettison what few belongings you might have. Needed an electrical outlet to run my CPAP at night. I had to jump through hoops for days to get moved to a bunk near an outlet. Then other guys would unplug my machine in the middle of the night to misuse the outlet to charge their phones. Do not leave anything of the slightest value unattended--it WILL be stolen.

People are ungrateful - when I read over the reviews I just thought to myself that people are ungrateful - they arent perfect and some staff are not very helpful with attitudes but not all and as for u cleanliness they do the best they can - they come in and clean the restrooms m-f on the women's side and clean the common area - if everyone would throw away there trash instead of on the floor and respect the place instead of feeling entitled even tho there homeless it would be cleaner but no they have no respect or gratitude towards the help they get with a roof over there head, free wifi , and t You can have your loads of trash held there when u know u don't need all that shit - so people need to chill with there negative comment about Cass because I for 1 appreciate the time I've been there - because what else what I have done without this place ?

Definitely kept us busy! All questions you have are answered when prepping. Feeding so many people for free is just amazing. They are very organized and could always use the help.

Their staff is amazing. Especially Taylor! She has done so much to help people connect with housing, work, rehabilitation and medical care. She goes above and beyond always. 6 days a week the guests are able to get water, clothes, showers, a hot meal and assistance with housing and resources. Taylor and the staff at André House protect their guests, serve them faithfully and do it with a smile. Andre House is a critical resource for so many living on the streets of downtown Phoenix. We are lucky to have them. Consider volunteering or donating. This place is incredible!

I have on video, a security guard who threatened to throw those court documents out into the trash along with sentimental items that were left for my loved one that have in the past comforted him. These items are what remain of his deceased parents and include his grandmothers urn. Despite police confirmation he is there- This facility does not act in their residents best interest even when on video.

I have also handed out their resource cards to homeless individuals, only to learn from one of the individuals that Phoenix Rescue Mission does not really help them. I'm led to believe him given that they did not respond like the website says. The financial donations I have given to Phoenix Rescue Mission will cease, as this is a disappointment to me. I thought they really cared and wanted to help those in need. It seems like they're for profit $, rather than not.

But once I got there, I saw they had all their paperwork clearly posted, and the people were warm, responsive, and genuinely caring. They took the cats in without hesitation and made sure everything was done properly. It ended up being a really positive experience, and I felt safe leaving the animals in their care. They're clearly doing good work for animals in need, and I think they deserve community support and donations to keep going.

I once lived in a bountiful where an immense freezer could be filled with earth's goodness of vegetables and fruits for a small expense in miles and cash. Not that easy in Arizona.

I want to contribute quality to those less blessed than I have been. And, St. Mary's, being a religious organization charity, blesses families, and individuals with the foundation of living - food.
