nepotism, and "chain of command lovers" shortage in supplies & water... etc...
I have traveled all over the country for the past 4ys staying at the "Salvation Army" in whatever state I visited ( A nomad for a min). By FAR! LAS VEGAS SALVATION ARMY IS THE WORST I EVER SEEN...(Recap) Manger (Rumored...might be true) got a Volunteer PREGNANT. And Brittany is HIGHLY HORMONAL BEING 7 1/2 months(not suppose tobe working or doing volunteer work under her medical conditions including mental. She has MACE PEOPLE KICK OLD PEOPLE OFF PROPERTY! OFF LINE FOR SITTING DOWN FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES...HAS ALMOST TATALLY CONTROL OF THE SHELTER! MR. JOWAN SAYS NOTHING BUT BACK HER UP! EVEN WHEN SHE'S OUT OF CONTROL! SHE MACED A MAN FOR JUST STANDING UO FOR HIS RIGHTS! THEN SHE GOT 86 OFF PROPERTY THEN RETURNED 3DAYS LATER LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. WHEN I COMPLAIN TO MR. JOWAN ABOUT HER BEHAVIOR...I GET NO BED FOR THAT EVENING...THEY WILL HAVE TONS OF BEDS AVAILABLE, but play cruel games when you start closing in on hidden non sense going on there! Women having sex in the bathrooms, worker are watching porn on the computer. Men walks into the WOMEN'S DORM WITHOUT ANNOUNCEMENT ALL THE TIME...LIKE PEEPING TOMS! Has a sexual relationship with Ryan the Director. Supplies are staggering. No tissue, no towels, no water in weeks. ( DUE TO SHORTAGE OF SUPPLIES, AND DONATIONS IT WAS ALSO RUMORED THEY ARE BEING LOOKED INTO FOR "EMBEZZLEMENT"! Disabled PEOPLE stand on the line in Sun (98-115 DEGREES EVERYDAY) for over 3 hours STRAIGHT! ...and if you move for water or a cig break or bathroom break you will lose your spot, AND HAVE TO GO TO THE BACK OF THE LINE! I have a back injury due from work as a Nurse for over 25yrs. That's how come I know that crazy pregnant lady should not be working in her mental state and no higher ups says NOTHING! All CLIENTS miss 4pm Dinner because we are STILL standing there INLINE from 2pm to 4:30pm. BLANKETS, TOWELS, SHEETS, AND OTHER SUPPLIES ARE ALWAYS BEING STOLEN. ...Too much favoritism, and childish control here! No REAL AUTHORITY! ...and will let people sleep out in the street when they always have bed open!...THE RUDEST, CHILD LIKE MINDED PEOPLE i HAVE EVER MET IN MY LIFE! THEY ARE REMEDIAL...AND FOOL NO ONE FROM EASTCOAST! (from NYC) they don't like smart people over here either! Sex in the showers drugs everywhere! It would be best to send people from out of state to REAL RUN THIS ORGANIZATION BETTER! THESE PEOPLE HERE ARE CHILDISH DEMONS..ATHEIST! WHY ARE THEY WORKING FOR A CHURCH BASE ORG!?...SEND SECRET SHOPPERS HERE! CLEAN HOUSE THEY ALL IN ON IT!...Y'ALL BETTER COME CHECK THESE PEOPLE OUT! THEY KIND OF CRAZY AND OUT OF ORDER OVER HERE...(an "Eastern Star" from Penn.)
When people goto look for housing or jobs they still make them stand for hours!...WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE EVIL NASTY PEOPLE!

Read full complaints.a. employees destroying charitable entities
A handful of Salvation Army employees are destroying Christian charities. The group that they're with has publicly proclaimed that that this is what they do. It is policy. We have seen them destroy 6. When they do this it leaves the target group unhelped leaving them in their psychological pain. Jesus says if somebody has a problem with you go to them and talk it out. They have refused to talk about this and we have been waiting to talk for five years. Their supervisors have refused to talk about this. Their supervisors supervisors in charge of all S. A. Operations in the Chicago area have refused to talk about this. That would be the Metropolitan Division in Chicago. We then went to the Central Command in Hoffman Estates and they refused to talk about this- only giving us fake emails. Can you please notify a high official to contact us to begin the process of talking this out the way Jesus has commanded us to do? It would be terrible if the national press started running stories about how the Salvation Army prevents the poor from being helped by destroying other charitable entities.
Thank you and God bless!

a donation problem
I accidentally left something important in the side pocket of a purse I donated. I went down to try and get it and the guy with the key to the bin wasn't there and wasn't known when to come back. Now I have to buy another one if he doesn't show up today. Why can't there be a spare key at the front desk for problems like these? Last time donating or buying there. A bunch of ignorant [censored]s!

I've been a local Key Largo resident for over thirty years. I've always bargain hunted and believe in recycling good used items for others to use. I've donated items to this Salvation Army for years and take pride in my community. I don't ever make reviews or submit complaints but after my experience today I am appalled. I am sad to say I will never be...

On Thursday. I saw some old books. One caught my attention. I was looking at it. Gladyss got very angry ripped out of my hands & said it's not for sale. I understood that. Wanted to look at it. She ripped that book 2 more times out of my hands! Thought she was going to tear that book. When I comfronted her about her behavor. She we are even; you made me angry of not taking NO for a answer. I told her if I did the same where I've used to work; I've been canned. She wasn't apologizing & just keeps justifying her behavior. I spoken to a police officer over the phone to see that was considered assault. It's not. The officer said she'd shouldn't do that & that's wrong. I'll no longer shop there. I've given that place chances. Sandy the mng. in the past refused to sell me stuff. Or put a crazy # on it & sell it way cheaper to someone else. She supports the antisocial attitudes there. She wasn't there that day. She'd would've backed her up. I've dealt with a lot of very rude employees there over the years. Will never shop at any Salvation Army again! I was a good customer!
Thank goodness to Barnes and Noble, books a million, libraries, and the bookstores that allow their customers to view the merchandise before making a decision whether to purchase it or not.

I came up there for help with my rent. I am on disability and this month I couldn't cover my portion of the rent. I am on section 8 as and my portion is only 80 dollars and do you know you all wouldn't help me at all. I was told that I had enough money to cover my rent. You all have to realize that I have to pay for my medicine as well as co-pays to see the doctor it is ashame how you treat the disabled. Your program stinks and I will be complaining to other agencies ad well.

Read full complainttreatment by intern
Caroline Armstrong made rude remarks while I was seeking shelter from domestic abuse. When I went to file a complaint she sat and laughed the entire time as I cried in frustration and mistreatment. I'm not a confrontational individual. They had me sleep on a mat in the hallway after being given the option to sleep in a bed or on the mat. I clearly vocalized that I would take the bed. Once I finished dinner I was told that they gave my bed away and that I had to sleep on a mat in the hallway.
rude employee
This happened 8/01/19 I dropped off two bags of clothes not realizing they were open or that it was illegal to drop and leave. The man told me and pointed to the side of the trailer, I am pretty sure nobody reads the sides of your trailers, anyway he looked at me in such a way he actually scared me, explaining a situation is understandable but being rude and intimidating is uncalled for.
sofa & loveseat donation
I have a nice sofa and love seat donation that the Salvation Army decided once they arrived at my house to not take the furnitire due to them having too many like it. What a disappointment that the Salvation Army can be picky on what donations that they take when what the would be taking is in good condition. I will never donate to this charity again.
