Let me first start by saying that Crossroads is a nice program but it does have some negatives i hate about it. Here are my Pros and Cons based on my experience i had when i was a Crossroads member from December 22nd 2009 - October 19th, 2011 Pros: 1) Most of the Case Managers/Counselors and staff were pretty nice and friendly. 2) They have a gym where clients can go play certain types of sports 3) Sometimes they give clients a special lunching if they do well with their treatment plan or do well in general there. 4) Most of the Case Managers/Counselors there are females who are young which for me i much prefer having only females as my Case Manager/Counselor especially since am generally far more comfortable/relaxed around females in general than i am around males. Also a few of the female Case Managers/Case managers i met there are pretty attractive. 5) Sometimes they have small parties on occasion "for example they had a Halloween party in 2010 and they had a costume contest where i won 1st place. 6) Once in a while they do talent shows where clients can show their talent 7) My favorite Case Managers/Counselors that i had there were Margo, Meg, and Natalie. Cons 1) The Transportation that they provide sucks which the Van ride gets uncomfortable when theres too many clients on board and when some of the clients clothes smells like cigarette smoke. 2) Most of the Case Managers/Counselors dont legitimately care about they clients for real and just really cares about earning paychecks. 3) Some of the clients (especially that long red haired fat woman named Amanda and that spiky haired old man name Jimmy) whom i encountered gave me some problems. 4) There was this pretty attractive and athletic build female Case Manager/Counselor named Gloria who told me to go to the directors office because out of anger i slammed my orange seat cushion on the table. Also Gloria is pretty intimidating where she seems to take everything too seriously. 5) Most of the clients there are either middle aged or old which is unfortunate for the young folks who attends Crossroads. 6) Most of the clients there are smokers which is why i usually do not go outside in the backyard since most of the clients there who smokes goes out in the backyard and smokes during breaks. 7) My least favorite Case Manager/Counselor that i had there was Kim (The Asian Woman) which she was my first ever Case Manager/Counselor that i had at Crossroads 8) I dislike sitting in groups almost all day long hearing about other clients problems and miseries which i usually dislike group conversations. 9) I dont get enough 1 on 1 time with my Case Managers/Counselors that i worked with. 10) When some clients does something thats against the rules every client gets punished by taking away some privileges. 11) I hate having to switch cases managers/counselors after case managers/counselors and retell my life story each time one leaves the job. 12) The so called gym(The gym looks like a warehouse) that they have there is not that clean and some or most of the equipment are damaged obviously by some of the clients 13) I quit Crossroads since Crossroads only gave the female Van Driver a warning when she said something bad too me in the Van and since she wasnt fired and i didnt get my justice so i quit the program even though i eventually got tired of going there anyways. Am done with Mental Health Programs/Partial Care Programs entirely. If you decide to go to that program do your research to see if that program is right for you. Also when youre starting out your first day or first week at Crossroads i highly recommend to not let them assign a Case Manager/Counselor for you because you might end up having a Case Manager/Counselor you may not like to even work with so its best to request them in advance who do you want to have as your Case Manager/counselor to work with.
