I should have hinted the comments previously written by others in need while interacting with the ignoramuses in the front desk. The security officers especially the big ladies with wigs are perhaps the most despicable low self-esteem ladies I had had to deal with in quite a long time. Anyhow, what goes around, comes around.

Took me few tries but I finally and living in a 4 bed dorm in the First floor. I get a pretty decent nights sleep. The food is sometimes pretty good. I have a locker which means I can go about my day without fear lot losing my stuff😎 .

Do not go there. Avoid this place at all costs. This place run by Catholic Charities is filthy, stinky and full of sick, crazy people. The "food" from DC Central Kitchen is gross. The security is abusive and no good. Stuff gets stolen all of the time. Fights break out. Security does not care. Staff does not care. Police are called.

Alot of the staff, supervisors, and security guards there are unprofessional, liers, and just rude and evil. I use't to live there, and submitted well over twenty service recipient Grievance forms against various staff, supervisors, and residents due to the on-going unprofessionalism by the staff, and supervisors, unsanitary conditions, infacility drug use, and so much more, to which, majority of my complaints were neglected, and discarded by the staff, &/or supervisors. They then lied on me by saying that was stalking two of the female staff there,which they used to issue a Notice Of Transfer against me in order to kick me out of the shelter so that I wouldn't be able to submitted any more complaints against them for their ongoing unconstitutional violations, actions/inactions, to which lawyers submitted an appeal of their Notice of transfer on my behalf to the Administrative hearings court, to which the Administrative hearing judge ruled in my favor, that my side of the story was more believable, and that the Notice of transfer issued against me was not warranted. The said Judge ordered Catholic Charities foundation to retract from their records, the lie they told on me. Now I'm fighting them in court with a civil action lawsuit for Defamation, Negligence, Retaliation, violation of the Homeless Services reform act, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Anyone know any good lawyers willing to take my case on and represent me on a contingency fee basis?("get paid once we win"). I have a substantial. Amount of evidence to prove my claims.
