If I could give 0 stars, I would. Idk how anyone with a conscience could work at a place with allegations for mistreating children.

School area

Hi, my name is Yunior and I was here 7 months ago and I had a good time. I was in a lot of trouble until I ended up here and they helped me a lot. I miss Delemos and Makalister. Greetings to the supervisor Manuel and… Papo, and thank you Salvadoran for helping me so much. I don't even need to say his name, he already knows. Thank you for everything, Delemos.

The place is beautiful; I was there 7 years ago. I miss Miss Karina and Catherine very much. Greetings to everyone, especially my friend Estefany López Ortiz; I'd love to hear from her again.

I was a resident there in the late 80's..... That place was pure hell for me..... I couldn't walk to and from school without being attacked, everything I owned was stolen, they tried to get me taken away from my… parents.... And just about every one of us who where there has had their shoulders dislocated due to restraint techniques that are reserved for violent adults, not kids from 8 to 12..... I hope to God it's gotten better.... I really do.... Brookside was my cottage....

I was only there briefly and said hello that same day, as I accompanied someone whose child is there. I hope everything works out for this woman. Love and peace.

Many staff appear undertrained. The website lists programs and services that suggest robust supports. Yet, in practice, these supports are inconsistent, difficult to access, or simply unavailable when needed. Youth are… sometimes discharged quickly to homes they don’t feel safe returning to so that they can free up beds rather than ensure safety or stability. The shelter provides very limited support for homeless youth given the high need in the area. While the mission is important, the reality falls short, and improvements in staff training, program accessibility, and safe discharge practices are urgently needed.

Children's Village were the best years of my childhood. I wished I had aged out of that program, I loved it

I was there from 92 to 99 it was fun when I was there even though I was always op lol

I was at children's village in 1971 for a year I had nothing but good experiences there made my communion there. And even went back after I left to make my confirmation 2 years later. I was in Williams cottage

Don’t know what all these people are talking about. I was there for 2 1/2 years in the Clinton cottage.Yeah, it wasn’t easy, but it definitely helped me. I’ll give it five stars, but it’s been a long time.

Best time all my life lol even know i couldnt go outside i had good time

Dallia abero supervisor of bradish cottage She was very nice and very friendly with kids

Do not send your children here please. From experience, there’s lots of verbal abuse and labor they have us doing which involves in punishments if not done. They don’t care at all about mental health and just feed you… on meds.

I recently left that place. I really miss being there with the girls. I was at the Brooks house 😭😭 I miss the Ladies. They were so good to me.

a Van of kids that speak Spanish go from LaGuardia to the Children’s Village —Why? Where are the parents ? Why so many in a van ? The public needs to know

Does anyone have a child here who arrived a few days ago? My son arrived here two days ago and I don't know when I'll get him back!! 😥

Excellent service, I was at house 42, greetings ☝️

While NYC mayor Adams was busy defrauding New Yorkers, here we have a prime example of potential child trafficking. There are few things that could be more important than an official tracking down every single one of… the children who came through this place and ensuring their safety and well being. I hope all of you New York democrats are happy because this is what thrives under your policy. Make no mistake people just look at the demeanor of the workers when they are asked simple harmless questions. You will all get what's coming to you.

Absolutely horribly managed. Children and staff are great but administrators are running the place into the ground

Did I just tap on to a star? It's beyond me how a worker can adopt your child. I was a victim of abuse and instead of becoming a productive person in my life to bring my child and I back together, they took my son. A… worker did, from children's village. I had literally no one to give me advice, to help mentally, or give me counsel. My lawyer even told me I would be selfish to try and have him in my life. every time I went to court my court date would be adjourned. Then when I was about to finish parenting classes they told me I would just confuse him. Now who is confused? I know Matthew doesn't know I tried to see him a few times, this being the fourth since he was a baby, but the foster(adoptive) mom (just found out he was adopted) never planned for me to see Matty again. I love you Matty 😙 I have albums of letters I've written to you! Susan pecos, what more do I have to do to see Matty?

I was at children's village in 1984 king unit bird cottage Marie McQuaid Derek Bird and Mr Earl Kapers alot of memories wish i can visit one day.
