Tried calling for resources for a woman who is pregnant with other children being domestically abused by her spouse and is afraid to call. Some horrible woman who claimed to be an advocate shut me down rudely and told me to make the victim call. I said no I would like to get resources for her and forward them so she has them. Then I was told to be quiet and treated like some child in the principal office. I told her do not talk to me in that manner and that I wanted a supervisor. She put me on enternal hold. I hung up and called back and the desk clerk put me into some voice mail. I am now wondering what does AWAIC truly stand for if women in abusive situations at risk cannot be helped?

Awful experience working with this organization. My caseworker was dismissive and rude to me. Offered to help pay my rent for 3 months which switched to 2. Those months my rent wasn't paid til the beginning of next month therefore almost causing me to get evicted. My caseworker, Dani is a liar. She treated me like I didn't matter. She needs to be tested for drugs. It seemed as if they'd rather have me and my daughter that had a disability go into their shelter than help me maintain the roof I have over my head now. I had to call the supervisor to get my rent payments submitted then she was supposed to pay $275 in late fees. Told me she'd submit the payment and then never did. 4 months later, my landlord tried to evict me yet again because of the balance that was never paid. The last time I called for a supervisor I left a very detailed message about my concerns, never got a call back, still waiting for that call months later. Have not had anyone follow up or check on me to make sure me and my daughter were ok. AWAIC complicated my life more than it needed to be during a time that was very traumatic for my kids and myself. I missed one call from Dani, the weekend goes by and she threatened to not submit my rent and drop me when I can NEVER get into contact with her. She's a terrible person. She should not be working with abused women. Was told I could get counseling and when I asked was then told they prioritize the women at the shelter so it could be months before I talk to their counselor which I need the most at this time.. I'm on my own and working and keeping my bills paid ON TIME no thanks to this agency

This wonderful shelter accepted me an my boys. They provided us with a roof over are head and beds to sleep in. It wasn't the easiest thing to walk in to. With having 3 teen's. However, AWAIC was our safe place. We got locks for our lockers, no one ever stole from us. We got new bedding and towels. Many toiletries to shower. They helped me get into housing. They provided good warm meals. They gave my boys treats if they completed a chore. I will always be humbled by my experience here. Thank you all for the help. We are doing wonderfully and have our own place.
