I had a rather underwhelming experience. The organization seemed disorganized, and communication was lacking at several critical points. The intention behind their efforts is commendable, but the execution fell short of expectations. Overall, it felt more chaotic than supportive.
Terrible place and community services and bad treatment
Nice place to get food and pampers only if they have it
Establishing itself as a vital part of the Parkville community serving needy families in the vital areas of nutrition, housing, and healthy living counsel. Supportive after school nutrition programs as well. Supported fully by donations, grants, and volunteers.
I loved the food you get a good portion for your money
This place helps alot from food pantry,to helping with household bills to Christmas gifts and much more other holidays to even helping with jobs and etc.
The place is great, they got share kitchen, food pantry, and a cafe
serving breakfast and lunch.
Also cummity programs.
Agency provides invaluable support and services for Hartford's underserved population.

Love working there, the staff and clients are wonderful
Great agency and staff with an amazing leader in Barbara Shaw!!!
Staff is great but some social workers I raise a brow
Our team had the opportunity to volunteer at Hands On Hartford's annual holiday Toy Shoppe event this December, and were positively overwhelmed by the staff's true dedication and LOVE for the Hartford community. We are grateful to have such amazing non-profit organizations that are genuinely committed to the health, wellbeing, and success of Hartford's population - not only on a seasonal or holiday basis, but every single day! Big UPs to the entire Hands On Hartford team for all that you do! The Upward team can't wait to participate in future events!
This place is very good because they help people that need food and is very organized because is by appointment
The establishment is very clean, staff is friendly & tries to work with you if you are in need of help. My only complaint's is that if you leave a message, you rarely get a call back. I had to keep on top of that. Also, I was in need of some help & was told by head staff worker that everything was going to be taken care of by them & it wasn't. I was very disappointed as I was relying on that service. Otherwise, they are there if needed be.
Serving our community with integrity,, compasion and respect.
I absolutely love this organization. They really help the community and staff is resourceful and nice
Went to see Jamie(Mondo), Every time my wife,& I go there, The BEST service, They have been in my wife, Me lives every since we've been together. We've been married five yrs this year, Together over ten, Thanx Hands On Hartford
Horrible place they help who they feel like helping they refused to give my daughter what she needS and they under minded me as a mother telling me that Im beIN forced to not give my daughter the formual she needs when they clearly told me no they wouldn't help a baby this place needs to understand a mother has a right to feed her child what she feels is in the best interest of the child and you guys let this child leave with out giving the mother what she truly need shame on you guys
More community services should be available and check expiration dates on everything in stock but everything else is good
I'm on the board, so I'm biased. But HOH is the best civic engagement organization in Connecticut with a strong focus on alleviate the suffering caused by poverty.
Great place to work and staff are really help you...
Amazing staff...very helpful...you can tell they love what they do!
Empowering neighbors to become food and housing secure.
Nice and clean a lot of space for different activities the food is good the prices are fair and staff is great I did some volunteer/community service at Hands
on Hartford at the Bartholomew avenue location cleaning up the place they have a spacious kitchen with all the latest appliances ensuring you get a fresh tasteful food meal every time plus you are helping out the less fortunate when you make a purchase that so it's a win-win be sure to check them out whenever you can.
This is a very worthy charity in our community. However, they need to focus more on basic needs programs. For example I would love to see them get into volunteering more for the homeless. They might do this already but I think they could do more, this could be a big opportunity.
