I'm not sure if this is correct location but for sure it's YWCA for domestic violence. I first ask ones that donate to this company to not and find program that's really helping abused victims, families. People should ask client if agency is doing the things to help them before giving. They put time limit on abuse and if they help you once they do not want to help you anymore. They forget people need advocate for more than deposit putting person in a home. I had advocate but due to I guess level disrespect they give to their own is why they can't keep employees after take it out on you. My advocate knew of abuse, quick escape, hiding from abuser she offer take me to community warehouse, help get boys tutors due to missing school for hiding. My advocate after left while in process of helping me nobody told us anything I decided call in and ask after told we were left in cracks after our advocate left, no plan to get clients out since I call ask for another advocate I got director only for her to leave but she left email for head person Susan to take over and help me instead of that being done they kicked me out. I waited for advocate help I was attacked two more times never got any help from YWCA besides free intern counselor so I would share with her just in case anything happen to me as I use share it with advocate. I shared with Jenny supervisor she play to care but the one kick me out advocate program later kick me out therapy side. They kicked me out I kept asking about tutor help for my son's. They said when advocate left anything she offer was now gone with her. I never put dollar amount on life. I never deny one help when my program is to help and keep person safe and people donate to help one abuse know others care. If their not using funds for that, what is funds going too despite who quits they should still keep their word. I left abuser I left with only my kids I had nothing YWCA said they can only put us in a room for a week when the week is up it's set up fail victim feel they have to go back to abuser for not having anything move forward without abuser. They tell people week discourage. I took the week after borrow but many don't have that option. They do not really care about abuse victims only open to collect their own checks it's just a job I believe you shouldn't be in that type of job and not have heart for ones enduring abuse. Real victims means nothing to YWCA. I plan open my own program really give the help needed for victim to never go back to abuser. Anyone like to discuss, have their own story please share if anyone need to escape please reach out
