If you are facing any type of eviction I recommend Eviction Defense Network. Amazing people. I have referred people there and had no complaints.
As far as I can see the only international organization holding Salvation Army accountable is The Royal Commission and you can contact them about Salvation Army crimes on their contact page here.
Now read my words of my most recent illegal eviction experience at Salvation Army Bell Shelter:
Today is April 30, 2016
Today is April 29, 2016
Email Subject: illegal eviction. Was Re: Discharge from Program
Date April 29, 2016 7:29pm
To Amber and others by bcc,
I feel I am being illegally evicted because I participated in the April 6, 2016 protest here in the USA to raise awareness of Salvation Army's abuses which include [Salvation Army Bell Shelter's illegal evictions and human rights abuses] unethical international institutional response to child sexual abuse of foster children and former foster children in Australia for decades. I entered Salvation Army Bell Shelter Sept 29 but it was not until 7 days after the April 6 protest that I was informed I was evicted in a fraudulent, backdated 3 day notice.

Last time, on April 13th you, Amber, Steve Lytle and Alma Martinez told me to be off the property by 10am April 15, 2015 and violated my housing rights, my ADA rights by not providing appeal rights and violated my constitutional rights by aiding in the cutting of my lock on April 18, 2016 while I was in the hospital.
As you know I called the police on that criminal act.
The institutional response to the abuse of my rights sets a precedent for Salvation Army, an agency that has promised the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse (bc copied) they will discontinue their blatant crimes worldwide.
The wonderful lawyers at Eviction Defense Network (bc copied) informed your staff on April 18 and Katherine H. personally told shelter director Steve Lytle on April 19 what he is doing is illegal.
Yet these illegal activities continue.
I am a former foster child, a care leaver. I feel victimized. I just got out the hospital today due to the stress of these illegal actions against me.
Ms Alexandra Tostes sent two staff to illegally tell me to be off the property the other day by 10am Sat April 30, 2016 and violated my housing rights because all April 2016 is paid for until May 10, 2016 as I began paying rent Dec 10, 2015 and I repeatedly have tried to pay my May 2016 rent (as I always pay on time). I am supposed to receive an unlawful detainer and the formal eviction process if you do plan on illegally evicting me for a second time. I was illegally evicted from cubicle #268 the first time. You violated my ADA rights by not showing up to weekly meetings to accept the payment and not providing appeal rights and violated my ADA rights by not giving me a real bed for the last week but rather the cot.
Here is the law:
Does a transitional housing provider have to
use the court process to remove someone
from transitional housing?
„ General Rule:
„ All agreements for housing (where the
occupant is not the owner), are subject to
California formal eviction process (i.e.,
unlawful detainer). Civil Code §1940.
„ Removal of transitional housing occupant
without legal process can subject provider to
legal liability.
Anyone helping Ms Alexandra Tostes aka Ms Tostes aka Ms. T to illegally evict me may be subject to personal legal liability and criminal charges.
Aiding and abetting is a legal doctrine related to the guilt of someone who aids or abets in the commission of a crime. It exists in a number of different countries and generally allows a court to pronounce someone guilty for aiding and abetting in a crime even if they are not the principal offender.

Illegally evicted from bed #268 which was paid for in advance and illegally had lock cut and items taken out
Hipaa confidentiality laws and other laws prohibit Salvation Army from disclosing information about me without my signed consent which I have not given to Salvation Army [due to the fact that they often do not utilize the truth.]

..has this information:
Does living in/paying for a transitional housing program in CA qualify as a landlord/tenant situation regarding eviction?
My daughter was just locked out of her apartment in the transitional housing program she has been in for a month and a half for being behind on her rent, and they told her that she has no rights as a tenant because they don't call it "rent" but rather "program fees". I had told her to just stay put if they told her to leave but they happened to catch her outside smoking and walked past her and shut the door and locked it, and refused to let her enter or even retrieve any of her belongings. This is a non-profit program that receives government funding. It was my understanding that they are still bound by landlord/tenant laws and must file for an unlawful detainer to have a participant evicted. She has called the police but they refuse to assist. What can she do?
While it is true that "special rules cover the behavior of residents in, and the eviction of residents from, transitional housing", I have yet to find any information that indicates that the tenancy laws do not apply and the program operator may simply and arbitrarily eject a participant. On the contrary, everything I have found states that the relationship between a transitional housing participant and the program operator is, in fact, one of landlord and tenant, and that tenancy laws apply (http://www.lsnc.net/housing/transitional/transitional.pdf and http://www.justanswer.com/family-law/6gz58-ra-mpa.html) and that Transitional Housing Participants are considered tenants under the law (http://www.mhas-la.org/fair_housing_tips08.htm#tip7).

Today is April 27, 2016.
This is Salvation Army's Fifth Illegal Attempt to Illegally Evict me. The time is 8:41pm on April 27, 2016. I was sitting in the building where they put me after the fourth illegal eviction. I just got finished talking to two women on the phone from the Veterans Administration who said they were social workers today. I kept asking them if the people who do the illegal things are going to be held accountable. They kept telling me they have to deal with one thing at a time. They said they would try to make things better and replace Toni White as my VA liaison case worker. I notice every time that I speak to the Veteran Administration I get another eviction within a couple hours.
Example:
I called Anthony Young, supervisor of the West LA Veteran Administration Liaision about 15 times from late February to April 18, 2016. He ignoted me. My hope was he could help before the problem got worse. He called me on April 18 while I was in the hospital after they gave me the fraudulent backdated Three Day Notice to Quit. I asked him for official ADA request of written documentation on client confidentiality policy because he and/or his staff passed on my name after I was promised it would not happen and I requested accountability and at the very least an official reprimand of who did it. He said he would not give it to me. Several hours later my friend in Bell told me they cut my lock illegally and took out all my things.
Back to Today, April 27, 2016. Two women (staff) came up to me and tried to force another package of things on me. The last time staff tried to force something on me was my April 2016 rent several days ago in an attempt tob invslidate my housing rights. This time, today, they said they were trying to force it on me because they "don't have anywhere to put it." Keep in mind Salvation Army Bell Shelter is the largest shelter on the West Coast...at least two giant warehouses in size.
I told her I would not accept it. She said it had drugs in it. I definitely knew I would not accept it then. Fraudulent accusations of drug use and incorrect 'False Positive' drug tests and accusations are the #1 method they use to illegally evict people without a doubt. If you have any doubt about it please look at this video of Mario who was illegally evicted after a drug test. He even had a letter from his nurse stating he was clean and they still evicted him in April 2016 just a few days ago. This is what is known as Eviction by Fraudulent Test. The short video is on the below link:
tinyurl.com/evictionbyfraudulenttest
You're not supposed to have drugs on your person in Salvation Army Bell Shelter. Its supposed to be in the medicine cabinet.
I told them I don't accept any envelopes from Salvation Army because they try to illegally evict me several times. They said they have a witness. I told them I am not touching anything that they give me unless I can see it. They said Ms Alexandra Tostes aka Alex Tostes aka "Ms. T" , the operations manager of Salvation Army Bell Shelter said they have to give it to me. I notice a pattern that when the extremely illegal things happen the name 'Alex Tostes' keeps coming up. They said that Alex Tostes said that Saturday, April 30, 2016 at 10am is my last day.
So now there is a giant envelope with drugs in it (I presume) sitting in the middle of the table on a table in a room in a homeless shelter and half of the lights will go out at 10pm so anyone will take them at that point. This is like some kind of very weird movie. How do they get away with this?
I do not understand how these people keep getting funded by the veterans administration if they keep doing illegal things to veterans.
The strange thing is that they have been doing these illegal things for so long and so many homeless people are so scared, and the people who are supposed to protect them like Toni White, Anthony Young and Jamie Cannon are so negligent that they keep getting away with it.
Today I received a call from Davin Corona at Castelblanco Law Group. They are located at 10944 Ventura Blvd in Studio City, CA. I highly recommend Gavin because he was very friendly. He specializes in eviction cases. When I spoke to him on Wednesday he told me something that cleared things up for me. He said they fought against a lot of these type transitional home cases and the problem he said is that the government just dumps money into their laps and doesn't make any laws. He said no matter how many photos, videos and recordings of the abuse that you take of the transitional housing or shelter the judge doesn't pay attention to that. The judge only cares about health department violations. So all this time that we spent begging Salvation Army Bell Shelter to clean up was just a waste. It all makes me sad. I feel a great desire to teach people about this. This place is like a tiny twilight zone where illegalthings can happen and no one cares.
Today I contacted the Los Angeles Mediation Services. I submitted the mediation information. Pilar once told me on April 14th, 2016 that she might be interested in mediation. I knew it was a stalling attempt so they could illegally evict me (which they did on April 18th, 2016) but I guess I have to try. So I submitted the information on their form and after it was done they email me a copy and here it is:

Details About Your Dispute
Facts of Dispute: I am a member of the NAACP, MindFreedom LA, National Association of Black Veterans and Lead Organizer for S. California ADAPT. These are all National Organizations with local branches that help empower people. Salvation Army Bell Shelter illegally evicted me. "I asked Officer Kyle Smith could he stop the fraudulently backdated 3 day notice to quit' and he said "I'm not sure I want to." He definitely was the highest ranking person who allowed the illegal action to continue against me who I spoke with. "You have been exited from the program as of today." These words were sent to me in Salvation Army Bell Shelter in the Homeless Veteran Reintegration Program (HVRP) one week after I participated in the April 6, 2016 protest. Multiple lawyers at Eviction Defense Network law firm told Bell staff including Steve Lytle it is an illegal eviction. April 6, 2016 was the most historic protest against Salvation Army ever because it was the first time that various protests against Salvation Army in two separate countries and cities, Los Angeles, USA and Sydney, Australia, took place on the same day for the same cause. A common cause for justice united. I spoke to Pilar Buelna and I suggested using mediation because Pilar was only interested in offering solutions which she did not have to put in writing and from dealing with Steve Lytle, Pilar Buelna and Alma Martinez I know that means they will not keep their word in any way, manner or form and instead use the additional time to stall so they can utilize an illegal eviction such as they have become famous for nationwide. I predicted it in a grievance I gave her found http://tinyurl.com/giventopilar - Still, Pilar said they might be interested in mediation on April 14th, 2016. So I trusted her & they did the illegal eviction on April 18th when I was in the hospital as I knew they would. So I am once again making the attempt at mediation but I again know that with May 1st, 2016 coming up they will stall and evict. Sad.
Desired Settlement: Promise Appeal Info for future evictees, [housing] & Donation to Eviction Defense Network Lawyers, a non-profit law firm.
---END OF MEDIATION INFORMATION---
Salvation Army's Fourth Illegal Attempt to Illegally Evict me was on April 18th between 3-4pm when they packed my things up while I was at the hospital because when I signed out they knew I wrote hospital so they knew I was going to the hospital so striking me when I was in the hospital was their method of operation to others as well.They cut my lock and took out all my things.
This is a video of how my things looked before I left that morning.

At the side are photos of what it looked like when I came back (photo taken by a friend inside Bell who called me as soon as they began the illegal eviction because illegal evictions happen so often at Salvation Army Bell Shelter we look out for each other).
I was told from witnesses it was Wolf, the staff who illegally cut my lock, and Ms Alex Tostes, the staff, who packed my things. I called the police on April 25, 2016 and reported the crime to the police officer who came out.
When my friend called me on April 18th, 2016 while it was happening I went straight to the Eviction Defense Network law firm. They heard all the details and called Salvation Army Bell Shelter and told them it was illegal for many reasons. So then they decided to let me in. Instead of a bed in cubicle #268 in the building I was in they made me sleep in a nasty green army cot in a different building with no locker that was extremely cold and the overhead lights stay on above my cot all night so there is sleep deprivation.
Neil, staff member, told me he and staff were illegally ordered not to allow me to see or get my stuff so I knew they were going over it with fine tooth comb to take out anything that could be used against me.
