One of the employees, Tania Matian Askarifar, was racist towards brown skin children and adults. She posted on social media that they deserved to be killed. As a result, I and many others do not feel safe receiving any sort of services at the Relational Center since its employees do not value human life or diversity.

A really wonderful, professional and well organized center. Both counselors I worked with were outstanding. Highly recommended.
