This is a single-family home with two children. The mother works from home as a tutor, however, does not receive a lot of financial help and currently has no transportation. The family has tried using the transportation through insurance and has not had much luck with consistency. Additionally, they need so much time in advance to for appointments. The child is in need of medical care to assess the child's ears and throat to ensure child's health. The family feels that a bus pass would allow them to make it to and from the Urgent Care office while allowing the parent to still be able to attend work.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement
There is an ICPC relative placement for 3 siblings ages 14,11 and 8. There are 2 girls and boy living with their grandmother in St.Joseph MO. This is the only relative placement option for all 3 siblings, and we would like to preserve this placement as everything else is going well. This family is urgently needing support with deep cleaning the house and bed bugs extermination before the walkthrough that will be performed by MO ICPC on May 14,2025. Grandmother has already applied first round of bed bug treatment; however, we would like to make sure that the infestation is removed completely.

Single mom with one teenager. The mom had to have emergency surgery. She has full time employment and was up to date on paying her bills, until she had emergency surgery. Because of the surgery her doctor has requested that she does not work for up to 12 weeks. Her employment does not include any benefits or paid time off. She works for a cleaning company which requires her to be physically able to do her job, but the surgery has made it so she can not work for the time being.
She is requesting assistance for help on paying half of Mays rent and potentially all of Junes rent. Her rent is $850 a month, she has already paid for half of the rent of May. She is also requesting assistance to help pay their light bill. The light bill is $238 and was due on May 8th. Any assistance to help pay these bills would be very appreciated by the family!

Three siblings currently residing with their grandmother in St. Joseph are in urgent need of support. The family requires two twin-size mattresses to replace those that were infested with bed bugs, as well as three pillows—one for each child. Providing these items will help preserve the current kinship placement and ensure that the siblings can remain together in a safe and stable environment. The Missouri ICPC has requested additional services for this family, and we want to ensure they are fully prepared for the upcoming DSS visit scheduled for May 14th.
