What a useless bunch of people PAID BY THE STATE OF ILLINOIS to deliver services but can not…read more.. As the lead agency for Department of Aging in Illinois they are USELESS.... Approached them after my young wife was stricken by Alzheimer's..... I WAS GREATFUL FOR THE SMALL RESPITE FUNDING THEY GAVE ME SO I COULD SPEND TIME IN THE HOSPITAL BUT IT DID NOT COME CLOSE TO COVERING THE NINE DAYS/NIGHTS OF UNSKILLED ASSISTANCE I HAD TO PAY FOR... Clearly told them I had been placed out of work due to my medical issues and am sole support for an ALZ suffering young wife.... Clearly told them I desired Senior Companion for my ill wife, we needed assistance in getting to/from appointments involving general anesthesia and that respite assistance was direly needed..... TO DATE, OTHER THAN ONE RESPITE FUNDING AND THE DISPATCHING OF KNK SHERIFFS TO MY HOME I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A THING..... My house is $ 30.00 per month OVER the allowance for any federal aid (They are who drive this in IL) in income and there is ZERO my paid for insurance covers which they are fully aware of. Now that they are no longer 100% involved with ILLEGALS I get a call asking if we still need help to be told they cannot offer ANYTHING due to a lack of "volunteers". (Next time CC lead with that statement on your CYA telephone calls!) Asked for transportation.... Caller said NOT MY JOB, I WILL NOTIFY OTHERS OF YOUR NEED. Asked about RESPITE Assistance... Caller said NOT MY JOB I WILL NOTIFY OTHERS OF YOUR NEED. Asked for help covering an array of prescription co-pays... Caller said YOU DONT QUALIFY AS YOU ARE OVER THE INCOME LIMIT. Asked for help finding employment with insurance that would cover my ailing wife.... Caller said WE DONT HAVE RESOURCES FOR ASSISTANCE FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE OVER THE INCOME LIMIT (By $30.00/Month). Really not sure what this clown group can do for AMERICANS other than WASTE your time because they sure don't give a dang as they see your rapidly approaching becoming homeless with ZERO assistance for a 62 YO White, Female, US Born woman and her disabled Vet husband...

This place is a little sketchy looking and you definitely need to wash anything you get from here…read more(as with any thrift store) but to me this has been a treasure trove for clothing and home goods. Probably my best ever find was a brand new espresso machine with a milk frother that was ten bucks. This is the only thrift store in Kankakee county where you actually have a chance of finding vintage clothes as well. I haven't bought furniture from here but they always have it at eleventh-hour garage sale prices.

I find this place to be fun to go to....as I am a crafter, I can find things to buy and make other…read morethings out of them.......I have bought clothes and shoes here, as well....never had a problem. the people are always friendly and helpful. I will continue to go here from time to time!
