The Haven Center Review

Was trying to help a woman get help with housing she had a job had been staying in my home for almost a year. I took her to the haven center who told her they could help her with rent or security dep for an apartment, when we got there there were 2 pretty good size women sitting in an office could see us at the counter but neither one of them moved off they're large behinds to even see why we were there. As a person who works 40 hrs a week raises 3 grand children and I do it alone I'm in my 60s I thought to myself so this is where my tax dollars go in the City of Lorain. The haven center in case people don't know this is a home less shelter and believe me when I tell YOU I pray every day I never need the help of the worthless personal that they have working there or not working is more like it. The STAFF there are without a DOUBT WORTHLESS.

The Haven Center is a very good organization they have concerns about all the people wants and needs and the director of the Center Gloria is a very loving and caring person she's totally for the people and the staff there awesome

Gave out free hair cuts a few times here and helped serve dinner.

The staff here really helped me n my family out. They also shelter the homeless.

Lazy woman work there sit on THIER fat butts while phone is ringing, people standing at the desk that they know aren't temp. Residents and very RUDE. I WORK GLAD TO SEE MY TAX DOLLARS PAY FOR THEM TO SIT AND GOSSIP INSTEAD OF DOING A JOB. VERY SORRY FOR THE HOMELESS WHO NEED HELP AND ARE OUT THIER HELPING THEMSELVES ONLY TO BE PUT ON HOLD WHILE THE STAFF THERE DON'T WANT TO BE BOTHERED. VERY NOT BUSINESS ORIENTED. WHERE'S THIER BOSSES?

They are horrible staffing and they help u with nothing but shelter wouldn't advise for any family to come here

The staff Is Very Rude They Won't Help U Fr If Ur From Cleveland And They Called My Family you people They Terrible when U Go To the Haven The Only Staff Member that u should be Looking for His Danielle Everybody else is Mean

They took my family in when we needed somewhere to stay then they took my son in too. They do everything to help you as long as you are trying to help yourself . the only bad thing was the cooking. It was never cooked all the way so we didnt eat there.

I need a place to stay i don t know where else to go , I called two times and nobody answered, please I m desperate

Very disappointed...i started calling Dec 18 through Dec 20. Leaving messages 3 times a day.
I was calling to see how many children were there as my husband and I wanted to take gifts to the children for Christmas. Left messages with all four options they gave me,and no one returned my call. Its bad enough these children are doing without, but evidently the workers could care less. They need to hire people that care.What a shame.

When I stayed here a few years ago it was horrible. The food went straight through everyone. It s full of drama. Everyone has chores to the point it s strict meanwhile one woman there lived like a queen being her relative worked there. She didn t have to do any chores and took most of the donations for herself and her family. That woman started a huge fight with me and verbally attacked me, therefore I left. I do not suggest this place.

I have not had to e
experience this. But i can say that im glad lorain cou ty has this to help individuals and families
