We are advocating on behalf of a resilient young man who was completely displaced during the Eaton Fire. While he did receive some temporary assistance through 211LA, he has since fallen through the cracks and has not been able to secure consistent support from FEMA or any other relief sources. Since the fire, he has been moving from place to place with no secure or stable housing. He often has no choice but to sleep in his car, and is facing significant food insecurity. To make matters worse, he is behind on his car note, and the risk of losing his vehicle would remove the only consistent shelter and transportation he currently has. This young man is in urgent need of: Temporary housing or hotel assistance, Grocery or meal support, Help catching up on his car note to avoid repossession. He is doing his best to restabilize and regain footing after this devastating displacement but cannot do so without critical community support.

An Altadenian is living with an elder parent and her child. They were renting a house in Altadena that was completely destroyed during the Eaton Fire. Unfortunately, she did not have renters insurance. Right now, they are still staying with friends and family (currently paying $1,500 rent to stay at their friends place) as they are securing housing in a new place. She has been able to find an apartment for a move in of June 15th but is in need of help with the deposit ($3,000) and first month rent ($3,000). They are also in need of assistance with groceries and necessities ($1,000) and clothing for all three ($1,500) as they are rebuilding all that they have lost. The total ask I'm advocating for is $8,500.

Good morning CarePortal Team,

I hope this message finds you well, I am a parent advocate currently supporting a single mother who has an open DCFS case.

This mother had successfully reunited with her daughter and was making positive progress. However, she underwent shoulder surgery in February 2025, and since then, she has struggled to maintain her household due to physical limitations and ongoing recovery.

Unfortunately, the condition of her home has recently come to DCFS's attention, and there is now a risk of her daughter being detained again. This situation has created significant stress for the mother, who is doing her best to care for her child while managing her health challenges.

We are reaching out in hopes of securing assistance with cleaning and organizing the home. This support would be a tremendous relief to the mother, help her regain stability, and allow her to focus on continuing her reunification journey.

Thank you for considering this request and for the work you do in supporting families in need.

Warm regards,

LADL Parent Partner

Hello, I am working with one of our school families with and elementary student and a middle school student. I was informed that due to the struggle of finding steady employment after the Wild Fires, they are struggling with rent funds to avoid getting evited. They do not have food or gas money to take children to school. The single parent is searching for work to get back on track. Friends have been donating food for this family but their fridge has stopped working and they don't have any where to keep milk and other items that need to be kept in the fridge. We would like to help this family as they work on getting back on their feet. Thank you in advance, God Bless you for helping those in need.
