Marymound Inc. - Winnipeg, Manitoba

As a youth who went here in March this year, I can rate this experience 5/10.

I had the fortune of having some of the best staff, who'd always check in on us and make sure we were fed.

Though I did have the misfortune of being alongside a rather rowdy and violent individual who practically trashed the place. (Yeah after awhile the police removed her.) And smooth sailing from there!

Although unfortunately the entire experience was rather isolated and lonely, surrounded by unfamiliar faces, people you were mostly uncomfortable around and weren't sure if you'd get along okay with, and no cellphones to talk to ANYONE.
This made me very uneasy/uncomfortable but thankfully I befriend a wonderful guy named Aiden, which made the experience more bearable!
We spoke about why we were in the csu and about life in general, and honestly, this was enough for me. (I miss him lol)

Anyways, it's a great place to be, and remember this folks, your life is worth more than you can possibly imagine.

Marymound Catering did a wonderful job on lunch for our entire staff. The food was fresh, tasty, and the presentation was excellent. The pricing is competitive with other restaurants and services in the city. We will be definitely order again!

If it wasn't for this place the CSU
I probably wouldn't have been today
This place has helped me many times
All thou they offer more support n programs today then when i attend I am greatfull for service

Although the only thing I find isn't right is allowing teens to come n go as they please when addctikn issues are high my neice attends mm and she addctioed to meth and they let her com3 n go as she pleases so they are jot really addressing the problem but making it worse by not helping her address addction issues

My experience here on unit 223 in 1991 was really mixed. There were some good staff there and some really inappropriate ones. There was often abuse of power and from time to time, I still have nightmares of the brutal restraints, being locked in the basement in three in a row, being denied bathing privileges when I was clearly in distress. The way that trauma was handled at that time caused more damage for the girls. I have been made aware of sexual misconduct by the Anglican preist and by the gym teacher from other girls who reached out to me. It truly disturbs me further to think that this could have happened. There were some good people there, like my social worker Raz and a few of the youth care workers. I certainly hope the level of care and accountability is better than it was.

I just recently moved from unit 223 in August and I had a terrible experience with most staff I had good relationships with some but the night staff were the worst the policy there was if we were overwhelmed and need fresh air they were supposed to let you outside and one night everyone was having a bad night I cried and screamed to get let outside and the staff just ignored me and my peers and another thing about their policy is that if kids come home after being out for a bit they are supposed to feed you one night my peer came home after being put for a while and the night staff hid again and ignored us while she was yelling saying she was hungry no one got food that night SHUT DOWN MARYMOUNT

I did not realize the full scope of services offered by Marymound. What a fantastic group people who are helping to better lives every moment of every day.
