Everybody that I dealt with is awesome over there
Someone referred me to them some years ago. They help with housing and there use to be a guy who helped with Medicaid and EBT, Jim Puchta. He had a lot of knowledge and was able to get through to Social Services when I couldn’t. He retired, and they have a new girl working there.
Are use independent living from 1996 all the way up until 2015 until I moved. They are a very wonderful company.
