Casa de la Familia

Given the serious nature of most of our clients cases, this is both an emotionally challenging place to work at and a true privilege and joy! I truly feel it is an honor to witness clients healing and knowing that we as a team had some part in that is amazing. 
Here, we help clients with healing, resources, supports and personal empowerment! I know management values their staff and clients, and I can not be happier with my decision to work for CDLF!!! The founder, management, and all staff are friendly and courteous. If you want to work in a place where empathy is not just taught but practiced, this is the place for you! 

I've worked for Casa de la Familia for a little over a year now and I have loved my experience so far. I have been wanting to feel a purpose in my work, especially since the pandemic hit. I've been able to quickly grow with my success at work. My supervisor does a great job of identifying my strengths and identifying what other opportunities I can bring to the company. There is a lot of work to do as the community is in desperate need of mental health services so you can feel rushed while working, but there is a great understanding of work-life balance and at-home priorities. I suggest checking out Casa de la Familia if your goal in life is to make a community impact with your work. 

When I first interviewed, I was very excited to start working with Casa de la familia.  However, I was very disappointed by the culture of the place and office politics. Although centrally located, there are many cons to working here. The place is disorganized, outdated, and staff is undervalued. They don't reimburse you for parking and there is no free street parking either so you are usually left hoping that your clients don't no show (which happens more here than at other places I've worked) so you can pay for the parking. 

Casa de la Familia has an admirable management who do a great job to help and assist all the clients. Their work and efforts might go unnoticed, but when seeing/knowing you made the client smile, that warms my heart. This nonprofit does so much for the community and I love being a part of it.  Management accomodates and attemptts to help in ways possible when having a personal hardship. They do not only care for their clients, but their  employees as well. The experience at Casa de la Familia has helped me grow through the years of working with this nonprofit. 

It is  good place to gain knowledge in different areas of mental health and also computer skills. The case managers are great and super helpful. In general the agency wants high results in the sense of productivity. 

They do a monthly training which I find really interesting. My favorite one was with an FBI agent who worked with human trafficking. A t the end of the day, it is a nonprofit, and I love helping my people, I think the company is growing and they are improving their systems .... I would personally like to see some more variety in the types of clients we receive. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Beautiful work environment, they value you as a person and as a professional

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
 In all the years working at that company I have not had any stressful situations.

I really enjoyed working here. Everyone was very friendly and supportive. I learned something new everyday. It was nice to make connections with other agencies. 

CDLF throws you out whenever you ask for proper treatment/opportunities for growth. Management is never around whenever you need them and it's always a competition. Terrible benefits overall and no sense of family. 

Pros: Supportive team, pleasant clients, agency mission aligned with community support, ability to work independently, remote work flexibility.

Cons: Low pay, no room for advancement.
