Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
7
High Urgency Request
DCCCA is working with a mother who has been homeless and living in a hotel for seven months. The family has been able to obtain housing and will be ready to move in this weekend. The last obstacle is paying off past due utilities so mom can connect electricity at the new home. Two of the children have been living with family and friends because there was not enough space at the hotel. Having this cost covered not only gets mom out of the hotel room, it will put the family back together under one roof. Mom has contributed what she can to the bill and has obtained assistance from community resources and this amount is what remains after other resources have been tapped out. Thank you in advance for helping this family get into a home and be reunited!

We are working with a single mother who was unable to make her full rent payment this month and are asking for assistance in meeting this need. Mom put in all see could and made efforts to access community resources and received what she could from other agencies and now we are asking if someone in the community could bridge the gap and cover the remaining $500.

High Urgency Request
Teen (17F) was recently placed with a relative and the family is in the process of moving to a new home due to issues with their old apartment. This has caused the teen to need a new bed as the apartment they are moving to will allow the teen to have their own space. The teen does require a full bed due to their height.
