I think we should remember this is a shelter for women and their children, not a prison. People especially CHILDREN shouldn't be treated like plagued criminals with no access to showers or fresh air just for having the flu. Appalling at the things I've heard and seen in pictures and video.

Someone asked where the money goes? My answer is to the electric vehicles that they park out front like ignorant, inconsiderate, theives. They probably ordered it straight from a seller in congo ? one of the ladies told me they didn't believe they were a part of the systematic problem, I wasn't going to sue till she confidently told me her organization is perfect basically. My 2 year old daughter was verbally abused by a staff member! At a mandatory parenting class I was forced to attend for a warm place to be for my girls. Who hires an ex drill Sargeant to teach folks gentle parenting! They force mothers to sit and be ridiculed and abused by someone for an hour every week! I am very curious how many complaints were ignored before this happened to my daughter ?? But, they are not part of the problem along with every other shelter in the country???....y'all really upset the wrong mom...I have already heard things from other moms about interactions with this parenting instructor, but if anyone else has had any rights violations, my inbox is open! I thought I had taken my children somewhere safe. If we win, I'll pass out free joints next door and the rest will be tithed to the streets without conditions!

They take great care of my girlfriend. We are both currently in between places and wanted a safe place to stay, so we went to both UGM's. Big selling point for both of us was high barrier requirements, we didn't want to be around drunks and druggies actively using. They have plenty of security measurements in place to ensure your property doesn't get stolen. This is a great Christian organization and yes, they have strict rules. But those rules are put in place for a reason, to keep people safe and to help people get on their feet.It takes a lot of humbleness and humility to come to a place like this, especially if you've never experienced homelessness before. But I now have a much better understanding of the need for Jesus in my life and how we should treat our fellow human. Thank you UGM for making sure Victoria feels safe and loved.

Realistic expectations in exchange for accommodations, staff were very happy and honest people, and Bible studies refreshed hope in LIFE. Very essential time to me during pregnancy, the other ladies were great beacons of love. Thank you Jesus, peace!

I'm trying to find the words for this place. I came to UGM straight from Bothell Washington. They answered all of my questions over the phone and gave me so much hope for myself and my infant. I got here and doubted that I would get in. But the staff were so amazing and helpful. I got in and settled with my baby. The ladies here became family in such a short time. The staff became the light of our days. Every good peice of news for my situation was shared immediately to whomever was at the desk willing to listen. Staff were quick to stand up for me. Applauded my accomplishments. Two days ago, I got into housing. I've only been here for 3 weeks. (Rare but I worked hard). Sure there are rules to follow but those rules are there to keep the children safe as well as other clients and staff. Curfew is set to hold you accountable. This is sober living to keep people safe. Not because they just want to say so.This place will always hold a special place in my heart even after just 3 weeks. One day I hope to become a volunteer myself.Thank you UGM for everything. Thank you for being a home even for a short time. ❤️

So much for a safe place to stay when Ellen Smith got them to lie about me being there.its related to the SSI embezzlement scheme at the guardian foundation. Not safe and not good people.

I sent a text to Lori Holloway on Tuesday afternoon after dropping items off for the center,The reception from one of your staff was very unprofessional, she didn't greet us or say anything but just leave them outside.I was very put off by this, Kathy was always welcoming and friendly and this person was RUDE!!!Now, I have had no problem donating and helping these women and children with nice donations. But, if we are treated like we were treated I will NOT help any longer.This is NOT the way to treat anyone trying to help.I never had the chance to see this person or make any kinda of contact with her, except to hear what she said to my nephew.Unexceptionable and very unprofessional.I am a huge supporter of UGM, and I know many others are as well, but to be treated like our donations are not important I will give to other places.Very SAD,Gerri Allen

My grandma is homeless and has a medical bladder problem and was being treated so horribly by the staff and being made fun of by other residents. I thought they were supposed to be there to help not humiliate people.
