Repeatedly heard people be emotionally abused with Porchlight services... No checks and balances with staff and actions. People are so vulnerable when they have no homes we need to do better.

I have learned more about Porchlight over this past summer since I was out of work. This is an AMAZING program that is actually helping people with mental illness or just unfortunate circumstances to get back on their feet. Not only do people get a chance for affordable housing, there are opportunities for work placement as well, that gives people a boost in self esteem. We can all use that.
I had worked with the mentally ill, homeless and people with alcohol and drug addictions in the past. This is exactly what we need to help these groups succeed in life.
If you have ill words to say about any of the Porchlight programs .. I suggest you call and get some volunteer work under you belt. Try to go inside and look out instead of being the person looking in from your life. You nay have a better appreciation for what this is all really about.
Very selfLESS people with a TON of patience, who do not get paid enough.
That being said.. enjoy your day!

They serve an unfortunate but necessary need in these times,both in the literal sense of being an organization that works to help the homeless find homes, as well as all the counseling, case management and social assistance they provide.
They ARE a bureaucratic organization, though, so don't be too surprised to encounter an occasional waiting list, like when you are in need of housing. The list is long, alas, but such are the times we live in.
Good people and a good place, Porchlight.

Such great support for Veterans here. Everyone has treated me top shelf. Food is great at 1102 Spring St. Very Grateful to have a nice room and food to eat when life turned upside down. Never planned at this point in my life I d be in this position but so grateful for all the help Bob at Dane County Community Action and Adayta getting the ball rolling. Thank you thank you thank you.

Very hardworking, industrious, resourceful, creative, compassionate staff. They are competent at providing "shelter in the storm" and do what most people would not do. Their sheltering is wonderful for restoring mental health. Having access to showers, soap, towels, a clean bed, and a safe place to be is awesome, and of course some good food makes it all heaven sent.
