“got my first cat from here and a buddy for her recently! always super easy to work with and they genuinely care about their animals. would recommend to everyone!”
“Because of CEDF, I was able to get both the resources and support I needed to open my own business, now 10 years ago! They have continued to focus on making sure my business succeeds with access to networking, education, and financial support. CEDF also helped me survive the COVID pandemic with their knowledge of available resources and timely educational seminars so I knew my options and could make good decisions. Thank you to everyone at CEDF and especially my business consultant, Fred!”
“I enjoy going to the bread for life and eating lunch and speaking with everyone. But I also have to say that the staff there is so wonderful, and they have made me feel welcome and done so much for me, anytime I need someone to talk to or need something they're there to help me. And I just want to say they're all wonderful, and I appreciate each and every one of them and missy is wonderful. She is an unbelievable person, she has a heart of gold for each and every person in the world. God bless you all and thank you for all you've done for me. In my family”
“This is a fantastic place, been going there for 15 years and it only gets better especially since I have been able to take my boys to the gym with me. Google review is not a place for disgruntled ex-employees to leave nasty messages--I have worked and interacted with the staff myself and everyone is kind and nurturing. If you were fired from the Y and you're not able to get along with folks there, that means you have something seriously wrong with you. I hope other employers look at these reviews and take it into consideration when you apply for another job. Be fair and don't be nasty!”
“Everything about the team is purposeful, meaningful and charismatic even under our duress they take the time to work into our situations work with us and develop our efforts into something with value and virtue.i am grateful and hopefully every member who guests like the hostel america needs, sometimes esp when parents or friends or others don't participate or don't love or respect you for who you are, or what your going through, there's a team that is patiently waiting to love you or who you are or what to become in life,in that worse case scenario and make it better and offer combat support like legends do. Shout-out to Kelly, Jim, Tanya, Rodney, Dudley, Alexis Rodriguez, Jose Acosta,Francis,Rosalie Sherrie, Rob, Tim,RIP.and Jacqueline. Love you all”
“My daughter Nalani needed something less instrusive after starring as the Little Mermaid at her school. This camp allowed her to enjoy her summer and get her comfortable for the stage without too much pressure. I LOVE THIS PROGRAM.”
“We went to the shelter today to meet a cat we had seen on petfinder. I was very happy that they responded so promptly to schedule the meet and greet. They were very welcoming and let us spend an hour and a half just getting to know her better. We fell in love—it only sucks that we can’t take them all home because every animal there is so wonderful in their own way. Highly recommend if you’re looking to adopt.I think the negative reviews here are just people who are disappointed they were not approved to adopt. Of course they’re not going to adopt a cat to somebody who lets them roam outside, or a dog that they want to leave in the yard or tied up on a leash. They want the best for their animals and you can see how much they really care. Michelle was amazing and you can see how dedicated she is to getting good homes for all the animals in their care. We are grateful to you guys and all that you do. Can’t wait to bring our little girl home.”
“New haven reads has helped my daughter so much!! Myself and her teachers all notice a huge improvement in her reading. Thank you so much New Haven reads for all that you do!!Highly recommended.”
“Can someone here tell me if the mortgage loans offered with them have a lower interest rate than the market? What would be the pro of getting their help, and having a conventional loan? if I am a moderate income person. thank you”
“I had a quick and easy experience here adopting my kitten. They set up a meet and greet and had my kitten spayed and at home with me in less than a week! Mary and John were so friendly and able to answer all my questions. My kitten’s paperwork/medical records were sent right to my email after the adoption. Highly recommend!”
“These people are doing the best they can considering they service two communities that don't properly fund them. Ask the towns they work for why they don't have a new building and more officers on staff? Its a shame and a sad situation for the animals.”
“I have been seeing a counselor here since the beginning of the year. I have been in and out of therapy for years. After seeing my counselor I have a diagnosis and have started on the right path. The reviews that I've read here do not reflect the care I personally get. I have recommended this practice to a few friends as well. Thank you Perspectives for all you do for me”
“I dropped off several bags of clothes, and Joe was a great help. He met us at the door and insisted on taking the bags from our car even though we tried taking them to the door for him. He is an excellent asset to Goodwill, and I wanted to ensure he was recognized.”

“I adopted my dog from MHS two years ago and really appreciate their thorough process- yes it is more than some other shelters ask for, but they really put in the time and effort to try to find safe and caring forever homes for the animals in their care.
I had such a great experience it inspired me to start volunteering with the dog team, and seeing the love and care they give to every dog they take in is amazing. Especially with the current environment - limited resources and more surrenders than ever- the workmates stops and no animal is turned away if we have the ability to help them.”
“While there used to be a Salvation Army where I live (Vernon, now closed forever), I know there are still other stores like these scattered all over CT.
I trekked to Hamden earlier this year and when I went here, they had some cool stuff.
I found a couple of good things that I liked. The clothing selection is decent, book selections are a little iffy. There's literally so much space that could be used to keep merchandise in these areas. Service is really good.
I think this Salvation Army is better than other ones I've been to.”
“Gaylord Rehab Hospital was the GREATEST experience that ever happened to me. What a place! They treat the whole person when you’re there, not just bits and pieces. The staff were all so wonderful. They went above and beyond in everything they did. They were terrific at getting you going whether you wanted to or not. I took advantage of so many wonderful services they offer such as I’ve never seen anywhere else. They have a great recreation department with lots of activities, a library where you can check out books, a Starbucks, a cafeteria, and a beautiful gift shop! I was in heaven. I came home wanting to go back. They whipped me into shape after my surgery. The therapists are excellent at what they do and at what they help you to achieve. I had to fight my insurance company to go to Gaylord and I’m glad I got it approved. Thanks again to all the beautiful staff. Forgot to mention, the food was just delicious as well. ?”
