Great community resource center! If you're struggling with bills food or any legal issues this place will definitely help! They also have a great 90 day in patient program for those struggling with substance and alcohol abuse.

I previously left a one star review for Interfaith, but I'd like to update my assessment now that I've had more experience with their services. After visiting numerous shelters across different states, I can confidently say that Interfaith stands out for its exceptional work with homeless individuals and those seeking sobriety. Their detox program, in particular, has been the most effective one I've encountered, surpassing the two other programs I've attended. I'm impressed by the dedication and quality of support they provide.

I've had the misfortune of encountering several homeless services operations, but Interfaith stands out as one of the least professional. Unfortunately, the staff often displays a lack of empathy and understanding towards the homeless individuals they serve. I've witnessed them gossiping about clients and, even more disturbingly, engaging in behavior that could be perceived as gang stalking or humiliation.

One of the few redeeming qualities of Interfaith is the food they provide. The meals are decent and frequently available, which is a vital service for those in need.

However, I've noticed a significant disconnect between the staff's availability and the actual assistance provided to the homeless. Despite having a large staff present during extended hours, the windows of opportunity for homeless individuals to receive meaningful help are extremely limited and brief. This mismatch between resources and service delivery is puzzling and frustrating.

Overall, I hope that Interfaith will take steps to address the unacceptable behavior of their staff and work towards creating a more compassionate and supportive environment for the homeless community.

WHY DIDI THE GOVERNMENT MAKE THEM STOP DOING FREE LUNCHES?!!! How could this be hurting anyone My family has relied on free lunches since both me and my husband lost work. We have a 3 and 4 year old. WTH is going on? Is this the plot to kill off low income people? 🤔

I've been here personally several times over the last 20 years. This time I was just giving someone less fortunate a ride. I hadn't been there for a few years but as always I am impressed with the amazing way they treat everyone who comes in. The talk with respect and concern for everyone regardless if their current circumstances.
Thank you for all you do!

They lack services and keep taking away or reducing what services they do have. They don't care to help. They're just collecting a paycheck.

I am amazed of all the staff here. Every staff was in good mood and very efficient considering the situation of having to help people in need. Trust me there are many in need. The office area is great. I went to get food from their pantry and i was rewarded with good things. I was hoping to be able to shop for things but its ok i understand that its more efficient their way. THANK YOU!
