I had a friend stay here a month ago, she said they dont help you much. All they do is get you government assistance take your phone at certain times and then kick you out for the day. So you either have to get a job or just wonder the streets. She got a job, but was telling me its hard for people to find jobs that go to that shelter because they have a bad rep so they dont want people from that shelter working for them anywhere near by and they will call the shelter to see if youre lying about where you live. She finally got out of it but they took all her money and gave it to some girl that claimed she destroyed her stuff when she didnt even know or talk to her. The shelter didnt defend her in anyway and let this happen when she wasnt even there or even let her defend herself so they took her money she saved. If you have to come here i suggest keeping to yourself and always taking your money with you when you have to leave for the day. There are some desperate people there. Hide your valuables or dont take them at all with you. I even suggest buying a small lock box at walmart for 20 bucks.

I live in the neighborhood surrounding the covenant house and I despise it. It brings a bunch of deadbeats into a nice neighborhood. If they are so adamant on helping these kids they need to bring them into their own neighborhoods and not ruin mine. I know somebody will criticize this review but please read on. My house has been robbed once this year and my truck has gotten broken into once and my dad’s as well. I also walked in on a guy attempting to rob my garage and it was quite obvious he was staying at the covenant house because he was a young kid and obviously homeless. I understand you are trying to do a “good deed” but you are approaching it the wrong way. The focus of projects like this is reform, not free room and board for people that are going to turn around and rob the nice family living a few streets down.

As a Original Founder, (it began as "UNDER 21"), I am truly proud of the work Covenant House has done through the years and the expansions that have been made since day 1. It is difficult for me to hear the bad comments, but sincerely wish those in need would realize the incredible potential that is available to them vs. the street life. Covenant House is blessed to have such wonderful staff members and I pray that anyone who truly is willing to make a change in their life will take full advantage of such a great opportunity.

If your commitment is to serve others as Christ came to serve (& not be served), the Covenant House will welcome you right in. (Lakewood teammate.) You will meet people of all ages, have group events together, fun-friendly interaction, and speak life to those working toward a better future in life. The staff is friendly and can assist you with any questions or concerns about your volunteer interests. -alz➕❤♡☝️

A very good place for kids who need structured care from people who can relate to them. There are licensed volunteer professionals on staff ready to serve the well being of program participants. I highly recommend this facility.

Currently watching Good Morning America (10242014) doing a segment on Covenant House (NY). Keep up the good work! You are making A difference for the children who need that support!
