SafeHouse Center Review

Very disappointed in SafeHouse Center in Ann Arbor, Mi once again. I do have to say that when I was going through my divorce, they helped me incredibly, especially the support group, and the legal advocate program. However, because of my disabilities, I was unable to stay there long-term and had to stay at the Red Roof Inn - they do not accommodate people with disabilities well. Last year, I tried to volunteer with them and found that they do not work well with disabled volunteers, either. I made some suggestions, but they were not open to them. Finally, assuming I might move that winter, I let it go. I applied once again this year and after discussing with them options again that would accommodate my disabilities, they turned me down with regrets that they were unable to work around my disabilities. Now...I don't have extreme disabilities, it's not hard to accommodate me...and I made suggestions, I was even going to donate accessible hardware to them. But alas, they do not embrace able-ism, which is a shame. Being turned down as a volunteer because I have a few minor special needs? Not cool for a non-profit organization. I am an intelligent, compassionate, loving, experienced, valuable person...they are missing out big time. I'm very sad that I cannot reach out to the people that could use my help due to a few minor disability issues.

This is an amazing place, I learned so much and grew a lot, after going through a really hard time with my Assailant and a car accident, I think coming here was the best decision I made, the staff was amazing and the best, they made me feel so welcome, even though I was scared at first, I made some lifelong friends and learned so much, The therapy was great too, this whole place is all around amazing, I m never going to forget the hospitality , thank you Brianna, Trudy , Kaylin , Arianna , Ulga , Angel , And so many more I can t spell all the names but you know who you are , Thank you for being there for me and helping me grow.

They do not accept donated used baby clothes and gear. They only accept new items per health code regulations. I find that very ridiculous. I didn't want good quality items to be re-sold but they told me to go to a thrift store to get rid of the items. Sad

This place should be to help women who are hurt and you guys have a women in there now who should not even be in there she ain't being hurt and she lied to get in there. Do research before just letting any one in there

I wanted to get some information and I cannot talk openly on the phone for Im sure obvious reasons. I asked about an email or an online chatting support person? That would be helpful because I coukld really use the help with the situation I am in.

Alot of restrictions, this place gave me a piece of mind. Thank you !

Thank you for being there at my time of need your very kind it was a great experience hoping to return in the future

Safe House provides essential community services in education, prevention of domestic violence and supporting victims and their children.

This is a wonderful and peaceful atmosphere for people that are escaping abuse,
P.s. remember this shelter is only for short term safety potection and not gaurteened long term parnment housing (assistance). This place is smooth, relaxing, and a peace of mind

Didn't hire me. Fine. Not like I wasn't trying to help people.

I would of gave five stars but the advocate ola didnt help me. She lied on me then on top of that they put me out four days before my due date. (Yes Im nine months pregnant)

Wish their PR could reach more people when they need safety and support.
