Antioch Baptist Church of Red Oak

A mother and her four children (M 10, M 11, F 13, F 16) recently had a couple of very traumatic experiences. They recently suffered a house fire and there has been a history of abuse in the family by the father, who is no longer in the home. When the family moved after their house burned down, many items including furniture were donated to them. The family's new home has been infested with roaches and bed bugs because of these donated items. Shortly after moving into this new home, the father was removed from the home. The mother is trying her best to raise four children on one income, but she is unable to pay for extermination. MCDSS does not have the funds to eradicate the infestation at this time.
