Humanim, Inc. - Woodside

For some reason BGE has this organization listed for assistance.Called every day for a week each time the voicemail messages from benefit counseling services says they are working from home and to leave a message. I have not received a call yet even after leaving several voicemails.

Some staff care and make a world of a difference but there are also toxic abusive Individuals that work along side them. The program supplies all your needs and then some if you focus and make a plan this can be a great place to start over and make a better life. Despite some of the horrible abusive toxic narcissistic staff its an organization that gets the job done. Some policies are inconsistent but if you hold them to it they will make adjustments. Theyre always short staffed and a bit Disorganized but its not that bad. They are the best RRP in the state. Ive been to 2. This is the best.

My daughter is a client of Ms. Q. Bonds and she told her basically to let her know what jobs she applies for on Indeed. Waste of time. Dont waste your time Sad non profit that makes a person with a disability really believe that there isnt a possibility of employment.

I am a client. Took my caseworker almost a year to get me on a paratransit program. She doesnt take responsibility for her actions. Tried to blame my doctor for her screw-up. Basically not getting much help at all. The supervisor doesnt care. I told her what was going on and she blew it off.Im guessing this is the result of underfunded programming but my experiences are still valid nonetheless.

Humanim is a Great Organization to Make Donations to.They truly help people in need.Thank You Matt for Your Help and Time.God Bless You

Looking for my brother Danny Moore Jr. for 2 years I have called and left messages to no avail. In this day and time it is very scary not knowing if he is even alive. I think they can atleast let us know that much

ive received services from humanim for 15 yearspretty long time. my experience as a consumer within the system has had its ups and downs. first off the other consumerspeers at humanim are wonderful. they are a huge contributor to my wellness and recovery. when im stable and in a good mood there are supportive. when im not well there are supportive and i try to return it.recovery from behavioral health disabilities should be person-centered holistic inspiring hopefaithand helps realize the stages for change. as for the staff at humanim and recovery some get it some dont get it and some dont want to get it. the staff that get the concept of recovery or are kind people tend to not stay very long. the staff that dont get it tend to not stay long enough to get it. and some of the staff that dont want to get it tend to stay the longest.which is a shame. the staff turnover is absolutelyhorriblyand hurtfully bad. ive gotten usedand numb to the staff come and go processbut most of the consumers in humanim feel betrayed. they relapse. some feel like it makes no sense to open up and comfy to a staff cause thats the norm. and one HUGE pet peeve of mine is whenor if a staff announces their departurethell say ill come to visit. saying that is even more hurtful seeing as the former staff is going to avoid humanim like the plague.the groups and most activities that humanim provides in P.R.Ppsychiatric rehabilitation program are unwanted and useless. im a peer recovery specialist at a wellness and recovery center. i can facilitate groups at humanim with lived experience than a counselor who spent two or more years in school learning about mental health disorders from a book like the D.SM series the unfinished book of labels. ive suggested a focus group for years but it always falls on deaf ears...or lack of communication. using youtube to facilitate groups MUST STOP.theres a big group of consumers in the system that dont have family or not have much interaction with. i think having a stable family involvement in the services we receive are vital in behavioral treatment. i urge families that have a loved one in the system under the care of humanim to get more involved in their recovery if youre not. especially if their in the residential group home.getting in the R.R.Presidential rehabilitation program is one thing. getting discharged is whole other situation. while being in this groupe home program for awhile i feel like i cant win. meaning if im not active and stay home staff will give me a lecture. if im active in the community im in trouble for not meeting the staff and consumer contact quota.i know this is a VERY LONG review of this non-profit organization. so ill end it with this... humanim stands for human i am. its about time everyone treats consumers that way.

An essay for HumanimIve been around the block here for quite some time. I am very grateful for their services and all the patience they have shown me over the years. However lately there seems a lack of gusto as you would. The staff provide a minimalistic approach to the care provided to the clients. This did not used to be an issue as the staff beforehand exhibited more the care and love needed for this field. The housing arrangements are questionable and clients are not always held accountable for their choices or negligence to menial tasks. Theres not much help provided if a client needs to learn how to clean or cook or other basic life skills. Majority of the time the staff talk and then leave or they sit around and do whatever as Ive seen. My suggestion is to in some way get the clients learning or teach them something if theyre just going to sit around. Also dont look for help with any driving skills here. All in all its not a bad place to be. The people are nice but to get to the grainwork it still needs some work.

Generally for the many many years I have worked with Humanim Ive been very pleased. They have been quite helpful and supportive tofor me.Unfortunately this Spring has been so much different. I have found them to be quite disappointing. When Ive needed them the most they have not been there. And when I called in literal tearscrisis being told that someone would call me back...no call at all.I find it very sad because I know that they can do better than this. They have many times and why now they arent baffles me.I really feel they need to fix this before it effects more clients negatively andor someone goes to a higher entity as a result Mental Health Authourity or Disability Law with complaints..

Love the services and they and nice and friendly. Non profit organization I got my neuro psych evaluation for only the price to see the doctor a few times. Other doctors wanted to charge me 3000 dollars.
