I registered for my community service at the Torrance Office. The staff was really nice and guided me through my registration process. This was my first time doing community service and I didnt know how the program worked. The staff referred me to a nonprofit organization to do my hours. I really liked my assignment and I will continue volunteering. I received my certificate of completion and overall everything was so effortlessly and smoothly. My thanks to the Volunteer Center staff especially during this pandemic challenges!

As much as having to pay for community labor and having to complete it gives me feelings of horror & dreadfulness, the fact that the volunteer center is quick to the point & easy to work with makes the whole situation a tiny bit better. I was dreading going to the volunteer center thinking it was going to be some long complicated frowned upon visit, but it was super simple, & took no longer than 15 minutes. Kind of wish they stayed open a little later but no big deal. Overall enrollment for community labor was quick & easy so Im sure the next steps I have to take with them will be the same. It does really suck to have to pay for it though, $85 for 480 hours. But oh well, its worth it I guess. Great place, quiet calm & in a great location. Very warm community feeling their little office gives.

Over priced. Never new you had to pay to volunteer for community service, or so called registration fees wink wink. Pretty lame.

This organization provides a service to both individuals and the courts too. I do not like the fees that they charged me. I am poor! I cant afford to pay forms a community service fee of $80 on top of having to pay for the community service every week. That I cant afford. I know that I could have chosen I chosen incarceration and in hind sight that is what I should have done. I would not have had to put up with probation for three years, any community service or any out-of-pocket expenses.

The people here are incompetent. First, they assigned me to a beaches and harbors center where female volunteers were NOT allowed (was turned away at 4 in the morning). Went back to get reassigned and got no apology AND got gaslighted for waiting a couple months to get the community service out of the way. (Still had a month to do it all, but the criticism was besides the point and unprofessional.) Got assigned a new center, did all the community service, then went to get my completion papers and half way to the courthouse realized they had put a COMPLETELY different birthday on the completion card. (I’m 21, not 60.) The people here are incapable of completing simple tasks. Unfortunately you’ll probably have to deal with these incapable women by court order. Good luck to you.

Suzanne was so patient in providing me a clear understanding of the multiple ways to schedule classes while residing in a different city. Thanks Suzanne, and the rest of The Volunteer Center staff. See you soon!!!

Took my wife and 2-year-old daughter to their family fun fair, and we had a great time. Lots of fun crafts and games, and some really great raffle prizes. Looking forward to it again next year.

I am glad this case is behind me. The staff was very helpful from the first day I registered to the day I completed my community service hours. They found a location closer to home and they worked with me because I did not have any transportation.

Rude, Nancy never called me back when I told her about the issues I was having with a place they are contracted with. Then she tried to blame me asking if I contacted them again.How many times do I need to keep calling them if they dont return my phone call there is nothing else I can do. The service fees are overpriced, the place they assigned me to never called me back after 2 months of trying ro do a orientation. This was a waste of my money. I am going to complain to the Court.

I highly recommend this office. The lady was very professional and thorough with the assignment. I thought the process was going to be more complex but, no, it was quick and easy.

The only reason it gets any stars is because it is air conditioned and it feels really good when its hot outside

Although this place was close to home, I wish I took my services elsewhere. The lady helping me was not helpful, polite, or kind. I hope possible clients of this non-profit organization, can read this review and turn thier business to a finer organization.

After calling several offices in LA County, I was glad to know the South Bay had reasonable prices in comparison to the rest. The girl worked with my schedule.
