    Sept 2017 price list
    Becky F.

    Been to this Martha's Table once. It's in a row of other Martha's Table offices so be sure to check the name on the sign! Clothing 3/5: they have a mix of men's and women's clothes. The selection was pretty small and skewed business, but everything was in decent shape. Blazers, skirts, dresses, heels. No specific brands - some lower end designer and some mall brands. Price 5/5: you can't beat the prices if you find something you like. I've shared a picture of the prices from 2017. Service 4/5: one very nice and helpful gentleman. But the other staff didn't seem very helpful and were a bit slow in ringing up orders. Also as clothes fell on the ground no one picked them up, except the customers.

    This is how wholistic community development should be done. Be SURE to sign up for volunteer shifts in the kitchen, food truck, and/or clothing store -- everything online, including a very helpful calendar view. The staff here are so passionate, friendly, and welcoming. It just so happened that when I was working a shift in the kitchen, PRESIDENT OBAMA decided to come lend a hand! He and the family have visited on multiple occasions so you know this place gets the presidential stamp of approval.

    Multiple calls to have doctor contact me go unanswered. Told prescriptions were called in but…read morepharmacist did not have them. A medication previously covered is suddenly not. I feel like I am putting them out by asking for a call back to solve the issue. If I was not desperate I would go elsewhere. Turns out the insurance needs a doctor's authorization to fill my prescription. Two days, no call back. Just spent 42 minutes on hold for someone to say that the doctor got my message and she will let her know that I called to follow up. I have 2 days worth of medication left. I seem to be the only one concerned about this. The feeling that I am bothering them by asking is pretty consistent and universal. Doctor finally called insurance and I went to pick up the prescription. WRONG DOSAGE. She fixed it in a couple of hours but what if I had not noticed. The only reason I did notice was because the pills looked different. I get that they may be understaffed, but this is people's heath we are dealing with here. I have to ask myself how they would feel if this was happening to them or a loved one.

    Several years ago I had to asked a L & T judge to take a lawyer representing me from BFC to be…read moreremoved from my case. Previously he was excellent but he became negligent and inefficient. He is no longer at the clinic, but before he left he wrote a negative review about me; consequently, I have not been able to get services from the BFC legal clinic. I was never given the opportunity to defend myself--or see a copy of what he wrote. No one gave me the opportunity to discuss what happened or to tell my side of what happened. I am sure that the court records will reflect my concerns about this attorney which the staff could have followed up on. I just left the clinic. I asked the social worker intern if I could get a case. manager. She consulted her supervisor, Ashley, who told her that I could not get a case management because I do not have a primary care doctor at BFC. I have a condition that I need a PCP who is very knowledgeable about nutrition to coordinated services with my specialist. I used to see Dr. Randi whom I liked very much. I stopped seeing her for two reasons: 1. I didn't think that she was very knowledgeable or current on nutrition which many (primary doctors) are not because of lack of training in nutrition in medical schools. I mentioned a nutritional fact and she was rude and said," I know that." 2. She gave me a COVID shot and it hurt so bad that I screamed. She did not apologized. I do feel that doctors should kind and compassionate. If you are educated and assertive some personnel at this clinic did not like you and feel threatened. I have not spoken about these incidents for several years.

    If you're a LGBTQ teen considering checking out SMYAL (Sexual Minority Youth Assistance League),…read moredo! SMYAL is so many things. A drop-in center for LGBTQ youth (ages 13-21). A youth leadership initiative. HIV testing, education, and outreach. A computer lab. A well-stocked kitchen. Peer-to-peer support groups. Movie nights. Friends who know what you're going through. A group of professionals who advocate for LGBTQ youth in schools, shelters, etc. A backyard. A repository (at least back in the day) of "There's more to love than boy meets girl" stickers. A great place to volunteer. When I was in high school, this is what it was to me: I have no clue how I found SMYAL. Presumably I googled (or Yahoo'd or AOL'd or whatever it was fifteen year-olds did back in 1997) something like "gay youth Washington DC." Shortly thereafter, my then-not-yet-first-girlfriend and I took the Metro to Eastern Market (my parents thought we were headed to Politics & Prose) and walked the half block to SMYAL's youth center--a row house that looks totally conventional on the outside but is all rainbow-warm-fuzziness on the inside. But we didn't know about said rainbow-warm-fuzziness yet; instead, we nervously loitered on the sidewalk outside--so freaked out by the prospect of actually going into the house that we were suddenly holding hands for the first time. This happened because my then-soon-to-be-first-girlfriend's friend had given her a small, purple-ish "courage" stone that she was instructed to take out whenever she needed a little extra push. At that moment, we both seemed to need a little extra push and (conveniently) the only way for us both to hold the stone was..... Finally--and now with swarms of butterflies overwhelming the nervousness--we made our way up the pathway and tentatively knocked on the door. Once we crossed that threshold, we were happily greeted by one of the social workers as well as by the group of teens lounging around the living room area. Never again would I be freaked out by going someplace "gay." I'm not even sure why I was freaked out that first time--I was already "out" to my camp friends, my school friends, my teachers, the headmistress at my Catholic high school...... Maybe we were freaked out because SMYAL is the first place we'd been where there was a group of other LGBTQ kids plus a crew of amazing adults selflessly invested in giving us a safe space amidst the world's many meannesses. Everything--both the good (like holding hands with a girl) and the bad (like having one's parents disown one for holding hands with a girl)--suddenly seemed so much more real. And as it turned out, a lot of other kids were just as terrified as we'd been when we first showed up on SMYAL's doorstep. We'd come for the Saturday morning discussion groups (these are on weeknights now), in which 8-12 of us would gather in one of the meeting rooms and discuss whatever was on our minds--family issues, school, STIs, sexual violence, multiple oppressions, romantic interests..... The groups were moderated by adult volunteers and discussions were invariably constructive (as well as initially revelatory in a face-to-face "I'm not the only one?!"-sense). We continued attending groups for months and months, and Saturday afternoons were often spent with SMYAL friends wandering the National Zoo, lunching in Dupont, checking out Eastern Market, etc. I did activities through SMYAL (bake sale fundraiser outside of Lambda Rising (RIP), NOW Lesbian Rights Summit, float-building for DC Pride, Dyke March, etc) until I went off to college. The organization was also supportive when I started a GSA at my high school. Everywhere needs a place like SMYAL, especially for kids like my friend "J," who trekked to SMYAL every Saturday from an isolated town in Virginia only after being betrayed by the one person he'd previously felt it safe to come out to--a middle-aged pedophile he'd met online. (But to end on a happier note: after they both ended up at Smith, my first girlfriend and a girl we'd befriended at SMYAL ended up getting married.) To learn more about SMYAL, check out the website (www.smyal.org) and the Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/SMYAL).
