So it's been over a month close to 2 months my step kids were supposed to have a lady come to the house she never showed up never received another phone call has tried to return phone calls never have a call return | reached out to our ODD lady, which was an informed a lie from their behalf say dad said he had covid smh so y wasn't another appointment made just a lie and y wasn't 1 phone call returned.
We then called to talk to a supervisor. We did speak to a supervisor, so we know for sure she's aware of the situation she promised to call us back. We are still waiting weeks for a phone call back why our child is still under no counseling very terrible service. I do not recommend. This is not professional at all.
