Good afternoon. I’m Christina Flowers, a school-based specialist with Union Public Schools. I’m currently working with a family that consists of a single mother with five children 7 years old and younger. This mom recently started a new job and fell behind on her rent while in between jobs. She was also making large payments toward a debt she owed to avoid garnishment. This single mother agreed to a settlement for this debt that required her to pay a certain amount with the balance being written off. She has reached out to multiple resources provided to her but has been unsuccessful with receiving assistance. This mother is seeking assistance to help her family remain in their home. She stated with assistance she’ll be able to maintain her rent moving forward. The monthly rent is $1200, the outstanding balance is $2750, but any amount will be greatly appreciated.

A family is preparing for reunification with their 4 year old baby girl. The parents are having a difficult time with finance. The parents are experiencing barriers that are preventing them to reunify with their baby girl. The parents have applied for multiple apartments. Due to having an overdue balance in their previous apartment complex, they are getting denied. The parents are living in a Motel, that is costing them $300 a week. The parents cannot afford the hotel cost this week and will be sleeping in their vehicle. If anyone could help with contributions for the motel this week, mom and dad would be able to save over time to pay off their balance at the previous apartment complex. Their baby girl will not be able to reunify permanently with mom and dad at a motel. The parents would be grateful for any contributions to help them pay for the motel that they are staying in.

Hello, we are asking for assistance for a rental deposit to assist a family needing to move into a new home. The family has already started trial reunification but the apartment has mold growing in it and the family has made multiple attempts to address it with the apartment complex. Additionally the mother is needing to obtain housing separate from the father on this case due to him not following through on his services and ongoing relational issues.

We are in the process of reunifying a mother and her young daughter. This little girl has not been in custody for very long, but her mother has committed herself fully to changing the conditions that brought her into custody in order to bring her daughter home. As this mom is without a driver's license or vehicle, we have provided her with a bus pass to assist with transportation. In order to assist further, this mom has requested a bicycle to use for independent transportation as well. This request is for a bicycle with a basket for an adult woman. Any help is greatly appreciated! This request can be fulfilled via donation as well, we do not need a brand new bicycle. If anyone has a spare that would fit an adult woman (about 5 foot 5 inches tall), that would work as well!

A single mom of 4 needs assistance with car seats and furniture. This mom recently moved to the area and has very little. Shortly after moving here her truck, which had what little they owned in it, was stolen. Mom has tried to keep a positive attitude and remain strong for her children during this tough time. This mom needs help replacing the items that were inside the truck. These items include 1 booster seat, 2 five-point harness car seats, and a bed for mom. This family could also use some living room furniture and a table to eat at. They're currently having all meals and family time on the floor. DHS has found replacements for the clothing that was lost but has not been able to attain these bigger items.

I have two foster parents who have requested a few items for their kinship foster son who is 5 years old. First, they would like a "door guard" type lock that they can install on their front and back door so their foster son cannot get out of their home when they are sleeping. They want to put it up high on the door, out of reach. Second, their foster son has never had a bike. The kids in the neighborhood are riding bikes and he has said he would like a bike (with training wheels of course). Third, this child has had some behavior problems and has been unable to attend preschool. The foster parents are wanting some learning materials such as educational workbooks/manipulatives to work with their foster son in order to prepare him for Kindergarten. He is needing to learn his letters and sounds and other basic Kindergarten skills. Thank you so much in advance for helping this family. They are really doing their best trying to help their foster son.
