🤔📑 Family Promise: A Client’s Story of Manipulation & Betrayal 😤

This episode details the experience of a former Family Promise client who alleges that her advocate, Melissa Pine, misused their professional relationship. Pine reportedly asked the client to submit her resume to the client's employer, raising questions about her motives. The client describes Pine venting about her dissatisfaction with Family Promise and subsequently appearing to use the client's job opportunity for personal gain and to benefit others within the organization. This included seemingly gathering information about the hiring process and concealing the fact that a colleague's mother had been hired at the client's company. The client ultimately believes Pine's actions were part of a larger strategy to remove her from the Family Promise program after realizing she had income while on FMLA. The narrative suggests a betrayal of trust and a manipulation of resources intended to support individuals experiencing homelessness.
