Promise House Inc.

Feb 21st, 2024

I went to promise house when I was about 15. I'm 36 now and can tell you it helps, I was a troubled teen and my mother sent me there. I was there for about 2 months and I know being there got me back on track. Not sure how things are these days but back then the rooms were clean. On one side of the bathrooms were the boys, the other side were girls. We all had school in the morning and had a room to play pool, listen to music or watch TV. If the kids were good they'd get a day a family member could pick them up to go do stuff but then you'd go back at night. I stayed there 2 months and at first I hated it but it did make me better by not being around the bad crowd.

Let me start by saying the person who answered the phone was beyond rude and insensitive. I told her my situation and so just said we have no openings which is fine however when I asked did she have any referrals to any other shelters she said no and proceeded to tell me they dont have any openings like I didnt hear her the first time. I called at 9:00 am today October 16th 2023 and yes it was a black woman it be your own kind
