horrible place, do not go here unless you have no other choice. the staff are rude and insensitive, the case managers do not care and do not do their job. i spent 6 months in emergency housing stuck because they would not listen to my needs. the site manager ariel is very rude and careless.

Safe and friendly place except for overnight they nice til they not. Very helpful if they like u if they don't they spread lies about u and gang up on u. Like my fiancé and I went they and they ganged up on her during a panic attack she threw her bottle of water at the fridge which it hit the fridge and the safflied and said that it had hit them and then she was asked to leave we came back together a year later she has a different name now and a wig because her hair was ruined by a barbershop in New York City. They called her and said don't ever come back here we don't want you here because you threw a water bottle at a staff member last year and u tried to use another person to get u in and u tried to cover up who you were by using a different name and a wig and the wig she didn't even have when we first went there she had gotten it after her hair was ruined while we were there. When she went to tell her her side of the story and how she changed her name and what had happened with her hair the lady then said don't give me any excuses I don't need that b******* just don't come back in the building.

I was at AFC, from March 2019, to May 2021 when I moved into a supportive housing studio. The things I saw at my time during AFC were... horrendous to say the least. I've seen people get verbally abused and degraded by staff here, and have the staff face no punishment for it. I've seen people be told they are essentially lesser beings because they are homeless and trans. They refuse to accommodate people with disabilities. When I was at trans housing, the beds broke constantly, the toilet seats broke constantly, the cabinets literally fell of the wall. They will make you feel like you are worthless. They will gaslight you until you believe they were right and you were wrong. They will make you doubt your own reality. They tell their donors that they are helping change the lives of LGBTQ youth, but it's not for the positive especially for BIPOC youth. You'll leave AFC with even more trauma then you came in with. There's been staff at AFC that were so Anti Black, that some YCs literally left. The trans housing susperviors (One of which is a well known person on social media), have caused distress to many Residents and YCs of color. They do horrible things. They have a fake persona That they're doing the best things and making a huge difference But all their doing is harming and traumatizing everyone

I'm currently staying here and the staff are horrible. I'm in a situation where I have nobody but one person and these staff keep trying to take that away from me. This person cares enough to hold me close after I've vomited all over myself and these staff did nothing but write us up. This happened 2 minutes ago.

The staff were very nice, at least…
