These folks were wonderfully helpful! It was a great group of people that truly don't want to see anyone go hungry...

Absolutely the the worst treatment and lake of concern for clients. I represent a disabled family member and cannot received the slightest assistance in anyway shape or form from Catholic Charities. Never returns phone calls.. Paperwork incomplete. Uninterested in helping with any needs or services to non minorities.Discrimination is practiced on a constant basis.

A very good place for those who need help.Food, clothing and hygiene products are provided here.If you are from Glendale and you have problems with paying bills, then here they offer assessment in filling out documents for paying for rent or utilities.The staff is wonderful, they will definitely help everyone!!

I think this place is great when you're in need of food or clothing but For rental assistance I would not recommend.Double check and make sure you have all of the reuqired paper work, but request Lisette if you can.Maria Roldan Was my case worker and she is the rudest woman I've met in a catholic based company.This was my first time ever asking for help outside of family and Maria made me feel so uncomfortable. she rudely interrupted me when I was explaining my situation to Lisette (after she brought her in to help) and spoke to me as if I were beneath her or stupid. I will never step foot in there again.But I say, if you need rental assistance, REQUEST LISETTE. She's super kind and understanding.

Very prompt & accurate food service provided free by these lovely Catholic Lady Volunteers. They also offer social work services, i.e. Citizenship Classes, AA Meetings, Job Referrals, etc. They have a Food Pantry that is open 4 days out of five days during the week. Never on Thursdays. Also, you may help yourself to 2 loaves of bread from their Bread Rack on a daily basis.

They helped my family and I in a very difficult time. We are thankful for the loving and caring workers and volunteers at the Catholic charities in St. Augustine Fl.

One thing that doesn't seem to be well known about Catholic Charities is that before requesting emergency rent assistance, you need to have a minimum income clearly evident within the two months prior to requesting. I left my job at the beginning of the year due to health issues: I'm 56 years old, partially handicapped and I also have health issues that unless I take real care, can shut me down entirely. I was working in a field with high stress, required to keep up with healthy 20-year-olds, but I wasn't unhealthy enough to be deemed "federally" disabled. Once I left, I was working freelance. I was doing illustrations, some typing, some transcriptions. It was going okay until the latter end of the year when I started focusing on a commision that took two months, which ended up not being paid. Because I had focused all my time on the commission (which included 20 illustrations), I had those months without an income save for a few dollars here and there. Some of these were under-the-table jobs for instant cash, but in terms of showable income, I had none. When I applied, that was an issue. As advised by a clinic social worker when I needed emergency care, I applied for unemployment with the idea that because there had been a significant amount of time since working, they may approve me. This wasn't the case. As was advised by Catholic Charities, I waited for a 3-day notice, then took my paperwork on to them. Explaining the proof of income I did have was disheartening because my bank account and paypals weren't showing income in the right places. Although I was still in a situation of becoming homeless without assistance, the rule however isn't flexible. People don't seem to be aware that this exists and is a hard and fast rule. I am trying to appeal still because I don't have a place to go once I do leave my apartment. I'm reaching out to different social service networks, but have yet to find one that might be able to help. Catholic Charities in my area seems to be an individual entity and there are no referrals they can provide. I was asked to bring in December proof of income, which I don't have since the tasks I am able to do have not yet sold. We'll see, but when seeking help, do be advised that you cannot be in a position of "destitution." People should be aware of this BEFORE GOING IN.
