On the 8th of August an incident that was very personal to me could have gone very badly for one of…read moreyoung ladies I was with. The ramifications could have been life changing in a negative way. The officers involved John Moos, Martin Siller, and Marcus Pope deserve recognition for the invaluable and professional way they handle the incident. Because one of the young ladies was in a blacked-out rage, due to alcohol, it was hard to see the respectful, kind, loving person she is. Like most of us she has her demons. That night they got the best of her. To the officers: Thank You!! The three of you were very kind and gentle with her. Despite her insulting violent behavior you showed amazing patience. Her behavior was arrest worthy but you chose to take her to Buckley in stead of jail. I feel like your supervisor, co workers, families, and the public should know about the outstanding job that night. It may have seemed like a routine call to you. Hell it may have been the easiest thing you did all night, but to me......it mattered. So once again with heartfelt appreciation... Thank You!!!!!

I'm giving 2 stars solely because the officer who came out to help me was genuinely kind,…read moreprofessional, and the only redeeming part of this experience. The front desk interaction, however, was shockingly unhelpful and honestly pretty condescending. The woman working there was unnecessarily rude and dismissive from the moment my mom tried to ask a simple question. Instead of offering any actual guidance, she acted irritated, gave us attitude for no reason, and basically told us we could be there for hours and to just "use a phone" because they weren't going to assist us at all, after we had already been waiting about an hour. It was a pretty basic request for information, not a difficult situation, which makes the attitude even more baffling. Thankfully, the officer who came out afterward completely changed the tone and was helpful and professional. But if the front desk is supposed to be the first impression of the municipal court, it's not a great one. A little basic courtesy would go a long way. Right now, it feels like you're an inconvenience just for walking in and needing help.

Each time I go to the webpage, I had to fill out all my personal information only to find out at the end that there was no available appointments. Why not just tell me from the start so that my time is not wasted nor further disappointing me. Seems like LCPH doesn't know what the heck they're doing.

The officer that they sent out here a lady, asked me if I had any enemies and I told her about an incident that I had had at the senior living complex prior to moving to this location. She seemed to be more interested in that than she was the the additional damage that was done to my car. I asked her if she wanted to see the photographs of my car prior to the damage that I had been reporting, she said no. Spent quite a long time researching me, and left here without filing a report. I assume she was trying to protect the person I was having problems with prior to moving to this location. She seemed more interested in that person's reputation that my safety... UNBELIEVABLE.

Try hanging out in the fish bowl near the Starbucks, chipotle, and Panda Express. Want a quieter place to work? I like the cozy couches in the multicultural center or the window seats in the gallery on the third floor. The emu is also a great place to figure out what's going on on campus and in the community. There are lots of clubs, jobs, and housing fairs that go on so keep and eye out for flyers and tables for all of the details. It's also easy to pick up a copy of ethos or the daily emerald to get those community news updates! The emu is also the spot for all of your ID card, atm, printing, crafting, and computer lab needs. And that's just to mention a few! I like the ceramics studio in the craft center. It's free for students and you can buy all of the clay you need right there! Just make sure to sign up for a quick 30 minute - 1 hour orientation. (Pro tip: there's free printing in the womens center!) You can also find the gender neutral bathrooms on the bottom floor near the east side of the building.

I was a victim of a sexual assault and went to Sexual Assault Support Services (SASS) for comfort,…read moresupport, and most importantly help with what my rights and protections from the person who raped me. This was the worst mistake I ever made. I disclosed exactly what happened to me, those involved, and was given the advice not to report my crime because the person would not end up in jail because the funding in Lane County couldn't keep him in jail. I wasn't advised to go to the hospital after my rape which was around five hours after it happened and I wasn't advised that it was my right to have the hospital do a rape kit and use it later if I decided to file a report and press charges. I was told my own safety was more important that putting the man who did this in jail because he threatened me if I called the police. I took their advice to heart and didn't do anything but go home and try and hide my rape from my partner and family. I continued to seek help from SASS only to be reassured I did the right thing. Not reporting the rape because if he was even arrested he wouldn't stay in jail putting me at even a greater risk. I wasnt until I starting seeing a therapist that I found out that SASS 100% gave me the wrong advice. My therapist even called them to question them why they gave me such terrible advice. I went back to SASS in person and questioned their advice only to be told "We're sorry. We have new people and staff has been moved around a lot." SASS advocates that I spoke with full admitted to giving me bad advice and that they were sorry. End of story. I asked to file a grievance and they did nothing with it. This is suppose to be a place where people of sexual assault can go for support and the only support I received was not the truth and not in my best interest. I wasn't even told any options other than to not report. This place received federal funding to operate. The excuse of we're in transition with new advocates and the paid employee's are being moved around is the worst excuse on earth. They admitted they are at fault but expect me to just move forward. This place needs to be shut down and a new place with a new board of directors, staff, and advocates that are fully trained. No excuses for giving false information.

I was disturbed in meeting with the program coordinator because she seemed to think she could…read morecomandeer my identity into one of the 'trans inclusive' groups by inappropriately demanding that I define myself according to a binary she laughed at contemptuously earlier, and seemed to regard as offensive. This scared me into silence. She didn't seem to realize many transpeople are binary-identified. What she was pressuring me to do was hypocritical and invasive considering how she felt about 'the binary' and considering I did not know her. She required me to define myself by this 'Binary' she referred to (e.g. male/man synonymous and female/woman synonymous, & either/or not one or some), when the only information I offered, and was comfortable offering point-blank was that I didn't identify as a woman. In fact I wasn't even comfortable with that, because she seemed pushy and intolerant of my ideas regarding my own identity. It was an ironic and upsetting interview, and it wasn't respectful of the complexities of identity in general or transgender identity. I was excluded from a group I needed because I revealed private information about myself in hopes I could get adequate support. It's not private now, because critically reviewing this place is more important to me than my privacy. This organization seems to be striving to be politically blind and to not recognize an association between a person's perceived gender and his/her social status, as well as how a history of inclusion and exclusion as a member of a certain biological sex group, or gender (in our society) might effect a person's comfort level with biological and simultaneously self-identified men and women-- or even other transpeople with a different biological sex than theirs, let alone a different gender identity-- which can also be uncomfortable. They "lump" transpeople into inappropriate groups. Regardless, this is an organization that is supposed to be designed to be supportive to victims of sexual assault, and it has let its ignorance around transpeople and issues of trans-inclusion disrupt that goal. Dissociating from (biological) sex being correlated to status leading to prejudiced groupings and treatments of both trans and cisgendered people is to continue discriminating by these same unfair groupings. You can't ignore how a person appears to the world (or has appeared) and what impact that has on a sense of belonging. Because of this I believe a transman should be welcomed in the "Self-Identified Women's Group" given there's not a group for him where he feels safe. Especially if he's pre-transition and does not resemble a male. But why shouldn't there be guessing as to a persons origins in such a group? Could there just be trust everyone was screened and belongs? Maybe instead of having terms from trans language used ignorantly on our behalf we could simply be asked where we would feel most comfortable, or which group was more important to us and why, or whether we identified with the life of a woman or a man or both. The refusal to acknowledge a persons biological sex and corresponding societal gender is "gender-blindness", or refusual to acknowledge the physical reality of a persons recognized gender by society at large. This deeply effects and shapes a person and should be given weight. I was denied access to a women's group on the grounds that I didn't identify "AS" a woman. That doesn't speak to my experience. I identify "WITH" being a woman. I have a right to choose invisibility for my trans status when I want, especially in a group that's primary focus is sexual assault recovery. I was invisible as male when I was assaulted, and I am invisible in my daily life as male, so I should be able to be invisible as male in a sexual assault support group if that's what I want. I don't believe I should be made to feel I'm not welcome, so other people who are not aware of my trans status might not feel slightly "uncomfortable." What about where I feel comfortable after a lifetime of discomfort? Why don't I have the same access to comfort in this supposedly politically correct organization? This organization needs a REAL education if they are going to advertise themselves so blatantly as trans inclusive with trans-language and include questions about transgender identity in their intake. I know I shouldn't be forced to degrade myself by saying I identify "AS" a gender I don't in order to gain rightful access to a resource when there is no alternative group for transgender and "transgender questioning" bioogical men and women where I would feel more comfortable, ideally of my same biological origin. Transgender is not a sexual orientation, and can't be lumped in with the GLBTQA group and respectfully served when there are groups for "Self-Identified" men and women available that discriminate against gender boundary crossing people using their own language; asking questions that show ignorance to the trans experience and theory.
