negative stars. no one there knows any more than I do. faking my disability and poverty gets harder and harder. it's the hardest job I've ever had for the least amount of money ever.
Worthless is an understatement for this place. I haven’t seen my son in years I have no contact info for his mother. I’ve asked for help bc she’s basically disappeared and they have told me oh wel get a lawyer. Took my case worker 2 weeks to call me back. I hate each and everyone of these worthless bastards. Lake county is a joke when it comes to anything family court related. The whole justice system is a joke. The best thing that could happen is they hire all new staff and judge Lawson loses her seat as the juvenile judge
If I could put negative stars I would. This place is never nice about helping people. I am not on assistance, but my mom is. They are always so rude to her and they are not secure with PII at all, they just want you to give your social in a room full of people over a phone.
I called to check the status of my Medicaid application for my 4-year-old and was told it would take another 90 days and was promptly hung up on. No chance to ask any questions, nothing. "Yeah, it's gonna be another 90 days." Click. Very professional. Just because people are in need of assistance doesn't mean you can treat them like garbage.
A joke. You could be working 28-38 hrs, go to college, be a caregiver and still wouldn't let you gtfo the work program. You have to submit all the paperwork to prove it and even then it's a lot of stressful bullshit.
They don't even know what there doing up there it's a joke can't even get a hold of people
As someone who is disabled I dread coming to LCJFS. I constantly have a new case worker, most case workers aren't friendly. They also go through them like crazy, which I try to understand. You have to jump through so many hoops every single month that it gets tiring. Meanwhile people who abuse the system still stay on it despite turning them in.
The Job place there is terrible. It makes it sound like they will help you find a job. All they do is sit you down at a computer and you look for jobs. Why would I go there when I could do that on my computer, on my phone, at a libraryetc?
They have great staff and exceptional foster parents!
I signed up for Vocational Rehab to help me find a job to accommodate a physical disability I have. I was talked to like a child and learned nothing. I was not listened to and they did not help me. I ended up finding a job that I love on my own. Very disappointed with them, the Vocational Rehab was a huge waste of time. Calling tomorrow so that they can close my case.
