City House

Once my three weeks ended, they coerced me into an intake with a "homeless shelter" in Waco. It was not a homeless shelter. They shipped me to a rehab in California for three months without even telling me. I was not drinking. I did not have any problematic behavior. They were supposed to provide me with safety and security. Instead, I was medically trafficked across state borders to a damn horse ranch and they never checked in on me again. Meanwhile, they refused to let me attend job interviews, and held my phone when needed in a risky situation. I would sue if I had the opportunity.

When I was there, I had different experience.i grew up with a mother, she was single. She lost us ,me and my brother. I went to three different, foster homes. I didn't feel like I, belong. Then City House, experiences. I felt like I found a new home. Trent, I think was his name. He'd sing while we're on the way to school. The bad side of City house, they too to us to the worst school . BUT it was Super fun and educational. I have no complaints. I remembering meeting so different people. Afterwards my Adventure, my Mother won us back. The was a great woman!

Does anyone that was housed there between the years 2011-2015 remember the Hughes children. 3boys and 1 girl

I wouldn't trust this place after my experience with Plano cop Randall Burns and the administration here.

I called today to check on my application process and I spoke to Letrisa and I can already this a great program without me even getting into it yet. With the great customer service I would recommend this program to the youth.

Honestly the place has good intentions but a very slow process. Became homeless a while back and was in there 17 and younger program but as soon as I'm 18 I'm officially on the streets and ive signed up for the 18+ but there is a waiting list. The weather just keeps getting worse and worse and they keep suggesting the same "solutions" all other shelters are either full or wont take me and my friend both and I think it would be cruel to leave her out on the streets alone. While most people within the program seems to not even be working yet I don't understand why they cant make an opening for those who are truly trying to do something with their lives. Just had my own interview and I've been sleeping on the streets with my friend....barley even in cover from the rain. Although they feed us they are housing the people who are taking advantage of it in the wrong way. I need a place to stay I don't need to keep moving every night.... Every hour just so i don't get in trouble with the police because I'm homeless. I can't afford to a ticket bc im trying to save up for a budget suite since city house refuses to help even put me within a hotel atleast bc of the fact that I'm about to start working. They don't acknowledge it they only care about the weed smokers in their current care... The hours for us to be in their community center is also messed up but that's another story for another time.

Good people here ! Enjoyed my visit to City House .

They don’t care about homeless young adults any mistake gets you kicked out *I know someone who stayed there* also when I applied they said I had too much baggage to get in and wouldn’t be stable.
