San Francisco CASA - San Francisco, California

The P. C. (. U.

We were trying to get a picture of the Alice in Wonderland poster with my pup for our friend Alice who started chemo yesterday. We knew it would cheer her up.

An employee came out of the door just then, and we said “oh great!! Can we just scoot in real quick to get a clearer picture of the poster?” And she was very nasty and told us it was closed and to get out. 😢 I assured her we were not going to cause any harm and just wanted a quick picture, but she wanted nothing to do with us and made sure we did not go in and then walked off to her car with another nasty quip that yes she knew we weren’t there to rob them.

I don’t understand why she couldn’t have let us go in the lobby for 5 seconds and take the picture. And why she had to be so harsh and unkind.

I find it odd that a place that is a “human services agency“ has employees who are inconsiderate and rude to humans!

Anyway, I also told her as she was walking away that we took pictures for google for local businesses to try to help them. So here’s your local business picture. Too bad it couldn’t have had a positive review to go with it.

But maybe this will be a little wake up call for them to be more considerate to people who are just trying to help make the world a kinder & happier place.

I've had the honor of being a CASA for more than 12 years. The team of individuals that work for SFCASA have been professional and supportive every time I've needed assistance with my case. I depend on their experience to guide me through any challenges I may have advocating for a youth. The staff reminds me (in the most gentle way!) it's not about me and my "better judgement" but about boundaries, expectations, and most importantly, the long term needs of the youth. People say these kids are lucky to have a CASA. I disagree. I'm fortunate to be a CASA for kids who never should need one.

I had a negative experience volunteering for SFCASA. After going through a very onerous training program and application process, I found it objectionable that they prevented me from advocating for my youth according to my judgment. After donating over one hundred hours to the organization, I didn't feel that I could continue. I was disappointed.
