Please help keep these children safe in their natural home!!! We are requesting for a family who is needing resources to provide safe sleeping arrangements for their children. As safe sleep in a big concern of the involvement with the department. They are currently in need of a pack and play with a basinet for the infant as well as some sleep sacks for this infant as a way to provide safe sleep. They are also in current need of a pack in play for their toddler as well, as his current sleeping arrangement is not appropriate. Their two older children could benefit from new bedding, the child in a toddler bed is female and the child in the twin size bed is male.

Hello Community,

I’m reaching out on behalf of a family we support—a loving family of four children who have recently been joyfully reunited with their biological parents. They’ve just moved into a new home, eager to begin this next chapter of their lives together. As they work to build a safe and stable environment, they’re in need of a little extra help furnishing their space.

One of the children, a resilient 15-year-old daughter, has been sleeping on a pallet on the floor. She kindly asked if we might reach out to our community in hopes of finding a donated bed—both a mattress and frame.

If you’re able to help in any way, whether through donating a gently used bed or contributing toward one, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for all that you do to support your community!

CHURCH FAMILIES: We need your help! I am one of the child welfare supervisors and we have a family with a child with severe special needs that is being evicted from their home today (7-15-25). They are needing a hotel room for a few days up to a week to regroup and get a plan together. Father does not paid until Wednesday this week and they are in distress. If any church or family could assist with a night or 7, that would be a Blessing to this family today!

We have a mom who is needing assistance to turn her water back on in her home. This mom has been working with DHS very diligently to get her kiddos back in her home. She is needing help with her water bill due to some financial strain she has experienced. This mom has provided DHS with the paperwork that shows this is an immediate need and has been very forthright about needing assistance. Family visitations with her and her children take place in her home weekly. This need being fulfilled will alleviate financial stress from this mom. As well as keep her family time in the most comfortable space for the children.
