"Received an advertisement on my car for this company and now they litter my apartment complex."

"Only leaving one star i have been dealing with this place and the lady Gloria has absolutely made me feel like I don't matter as if I'm not my son's mom has given me a horrible experience with this place i will be reaching out to the hire ups"

"I went to a job event here and applied for a couple positions. It was interesting because the woman who interviewed me and everyone there was so nice (almost to the point where it was a little too much). During the interview, the woman talked about ACEs and how they want to help people/kids who experience them. The irony is that I have ACEs myself, was nice and tried my best during the interview, and never got any kind of feedback or response. I get that I have a problem with low confidence and low assertiveness (as a result of the ACEs) and I thought that if anyone would help my daughter and me get a leg up and get out of a bad living situation, it was them. I guess I was wrong. Extra star for the outward niceness though."

"My ex- wife used this agency for supervised visitation so she could see my kids. They are supposed to be an unbiased, and uninterested third party. How ever the way I was treated proved the opposite. My concerns and questions were not answered nor addressed even though I am the custodial parent. I was called and accused of things with out being asked anything they just listed off a bunch of things that I "was doing wrong". When reaching out to the manager for running late for a drop off (like I was instructed), I was rudely told she was vacation that she had e-mailed me, and the call ended. The are disorganized, and contradict them self's. I was told before the visits take place both parents have to do an intake. It is an hour long appointment, where they explain the rules and regulation of the visits ask questions about the kids ext. I had to juggle 2 children, work and Doctor appointments to make it to my intake after it was rescheduled by the agency, yet my ex wife showed up to 10min prior to the visit and she was able to see the kids with out the intake preformed. Her intake was scheduled right after mine this is how I know. They also did not follow their own visitation rules when I mentioned the issue. I was told that it was not in the court order, and to provide a court order. I had to point out it was in their own rule book, and give them a reason why. My ex wife got away with a lot of things that they were supposed to prevent by the supervisor. When I brought it up to the attention of the manager Carla she simply stated if we could determine if supervised visitations were the right fit for us next time. Pro, to the supervised visits everything is noted and can be provided to the court. Con, custodial parents have to subpoena and pay $350.00 for the notes, while the supervised parent is provided the records for no additional charge. Maybe this agency is not used to seeing the father as the custodial parent. I would not recommend them to any parents seeking supervised visits."

"Dr. Sharon Perugini assessed and then diagnosed my son with autism. She was extremely kind and professional the entire time. She was sweet to my son and caring as she told us our son's diagnoses. She offered me several resources and helped me understand what was to follow before leaving for the day."
