Help Reunify a Bio Family

I have a mom who just started her trial home visit and daycare won’t start till later in the month. Because daycare won’t start Monday, this mom is having to miss work and her job has really been understanding but she can’t miss 11 days of work. She is needing help with self pay until state pay kicks in.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

Jackson County Children's Division is seeking assistance in supplying a family who is in need of Uber gift cards to help them get around town & to attend their visitation with their 4-month-old son. It seems to be that having a vehicle and stable housing are the only barriers this family is facing that might be preventing them from reunifying within the time frame they would like to reunify in. Otherwise, they are doing absolutely everything & more to be able to ensure they are prepared for their little one to come home. This couple is doing exceedingly well on their progress towards sobriety and reunification with their son! The couple is 120 days sober from ALL substances and are actively participating in all services at this time! The couple is SO determined to reunify with their son, that they took it upon themselves to join other additional support groups on top of what they're required to participate in. They have even provided me as a caseworker with other resources within the local community that I hadn't known about, to then research and give out to other clients to help them! That is one of the many reasons as to why I enjoy working with this family so much. I am very proud of this couple and am hopeful that Care Portal will be able to find something to assist this couple in finding transportation vouchers. As always, thank you for your time and consideration from Jackson County Children's Division! We are so grateful to be partnered with an organization like yours!

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

A single mother of two has recently exited a domestic violence situation, but the former partner continues to pose challenges for her and her children. Currently, she lacks both a cell phone and employment, which severely limits her ability to contact emergency services in the event of a crisis. Although she has applied for various jobs and assistance programs, the absence of a phone prevents potential employers and service providers from reaching her.

To ensure her family's safety and maintain vital communication with support resources, she urgently requires assistance in covering her phone bill. This would help her secure a means to call for help in emergencies and stay connected with necessary services.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care

The children cannot live in the home of their grandmother who can take them. They were in a single parent home and Mom died, they are staying with an 84-year-old great-grandmother in a very small home and need to get into grandmas. She needs a dumpster urgently so that she can clean out her 2-bedroom home to accommodate the kids. She has too many boxes, bins and clutter to have them live with her comfortably or safely and there are 3 kids, so it really needs to be able to have all the rooms used. PLEASE HELP!! Great Grandmother cannot keep them. Would be great if this dumpster could get delivered on MONDAY so that they can get the house cleaned out by Friday and the kids can get into the home. Great Grandmother is hanging on, but barely!! A dumpster that is going to be delivered is being arranged, we are desperate to keep the kids with their grandma they have had so much tragedy and loss.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family

Single mother and her three children need assistance paying rent on their new apartment so they can finally have longterm housing.

Mother is currently staying at a long-term stay hotel where she has been harrassed and attacked at by other guests. She has been staying there after being kicked out of a shelter that was supposed to help her until she found more permanent housing and was allegedly robbed and manipulated by a service provider who took her money (which following a significant period of time was returned) and many of her items (which still have not been returned). However, Mother's section 8 voucher has been granted and she will be able to move into an apartment which she has secured but needs to put a down payment on. By helping her with this, she and her children will have long-term stable housing.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement

baby was born at 23 weeks in September. Mother is recovering from substance abuse. Mother is currently in jail, she is either going to in patient rehab or to prison. Before mom went to jail she was working with children's division and doing well. The baby is staying with a family friend and they are looking to get guardianship to prevent the baby from coming into state custody. The family needs are size 2 diapers and formula. They are getting WIC but it takes time. Similac 360 Total Care Infant Formula Ready to Feed. Also if possible they need help affording a attorney for guardianship. I did not know how much to put down for value.

Help Reintegrate a Survivor of Human Trafficking

A young girl and her family have recently relocated to Florida. During their time there, she connected with an adult male on Snapchat, who persuaded her to travel to Cincinnati, even covering the cost of her Greyhound ticket. When the child left home, her mother promptly filed a missing person report, and efforts to locate her have been ongoing. Fortunately, the child has been found in Cincinnati and is currently receiving care in a hospital while arrangements are made for her safe return home. The mother is diligently working full-time to provide for her daughters and maintain their home. An adult sister is ready and willing to fly to Cincinnati to bring her sister back, but the family is currently facing financial challenges that prevent them from affording the travel expenses.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

This family needs help paying their $5000 rent bill. They will be evicted on July 10th if they do not contribute to the total. The mother I have been working with is just returning to her job after maternity leave. There are 4 kiddos who live in this apartment who would not have somewhere to live if they are evicted. Mother and her boyfriend are now working and will be able to handle the monthly rent once it is down to a manageable amount. Mother has reached out to other community organizations who do not have funding to help her family at this time. Thank you so much for considering this families needs.
