CPS is currently working with a family that unfortunately has a child placed outside of the home with relatives to prevent her entering foster care. She is currently staying with her aunt and she is in need of help with transporting the child to the school that is not in her district. The aunt desperately needs help with gas to provide the transportation to school and to many doctor appointments. Any thing would be much appreciated.

Roanoke City DSS gained custody of a 16 year old female due to truancy. This has been an ongoing concern for this youth, as she was 100% truant for the 2023-2024 academic year. She is now placed in a therapeutic foster home in Lynchburg and attending school. woohoo!!! The agency has scheduled family visits to occur in Lynchburg, so the youth does not miss school. This is due to her being behind academically. This youth is bonded to her family and the Department would like to ensure that in-person visits can occur. The biological mother is willing to drive to Lynchburg on a bi-weekly basis for family time, but is not able to afford gas. Our agency is asking for either one or multiple churches to meet a need of gas gift cards. The visit is located 49.7 miles away. If this need can be met, the gift cards can be dropped off at Roanoke City DSS or provided to the family directly. I, Shanae Vaughn, am the ongoing worker for this family. Please give me a call at(###) ###-####, so i can assist in this matter. Thanks :)

Hello! I am currently working with a mother of two children, ages 11 and 12, who has been homeless for nearly a year. The twelve year old male was admitted to a residential program located in Northern Virginia in August due to extreme negative behaviors. The mother would like to be able to facilitate face to face visits at the facility, but is in need of financial support to have vehicle repairs completed. She has obtained a mechanic's estimate for work needed, and we are requesting any support possible to help her regain reliable transportation. She desperately misses her son, and visiting when possible is essential to the success of his treatment goals to eventually reunite with his family. Any support is greatly appreciated!

I am currently working with a family who is in need of financial assistance. This family consists of a single mom, who has one child in the home who is 16. Mom lost her 19 year old son in July to suicide, and has struggled to catch up with bills. The 16 year old is currently living with his father, but until mom can have her heat back on the child is not allowed to come to her home. This family has no history with the department, mom is employed and is trying her best to receive help so her bill can get caught up. Mom is attempting to work with community resources; however, they are only willing to pay her bill if it is under $300. Due to the department's allotted amount of Money, we are unable to help with the total amount of the bill. I am placing this request on here to see if anyone would be willing to help this mom in anyway. Anything helps and she would be beyond grateful for any amount of help given! Please send prayers and good thoughts towards this family!

I am currently working with a single mother of four children. Over the past year this mother has reached out for significant needs as she is struggling to make ends meet and provide for her young children. She currently reports that she feels she is worse off now than she was this time last year. The school reports that the children have lice so badly they are miserable. The school is trying to remedy the lice in order to keep them in school and the mother said she has tried things at home but it hasn't worked so far. Additionally, the mother reports that her youngest child has run out of pull-ups and they are in need of some laundry detergent, and hygiene products. This request is for two lice kits, some pull-ups size 6, and hygiene products like soap and shampoo and laundry detergent.

Mother is disabled with autistic son. She has found new housing in a better area for her family and is unable to work. She struggles with her son most times and CPS is involved in helping to secure services to meet his needs. Mom lives in an apartment and is now moving into a house with yard for him. Mom has paid her deposit and electricity but did not have a water bill in the apartment. Mom is unable to get water turned on in the home due to owing 776.00 on an old bill. Mom states she has 200.00 and is going to Salvation Army to see if they could help. Mom would still need 576.00 to have running water.

Hello, I have a family on my caseload who has one child on a trial home placement, but because her daughter is not officially in her custody her section 8 voucher does not recognize her being on the lease in the home. This has also caused the Landlord to increase the rent in this mother's home, and with the increase she was not able to budget everything. She is disputing the increase, however she still has to make payments so she stays up to date. She is needing help to get caught up so she can keep the home, and she is able to keep her daughter in the trial home. We also want to transition the other child home as well. I am requesting any help possible to help her to get caught up on her back rent. Updated on November 14, 2023 by an Agency Worker
I would like to send an update asking if anyone can even donate a little bit, this family needs this help, and her section 8 is going to reset in December. At court today the payment was recognized that she will still owe this money due to the way things happened.

Kim: Can you tell me if the grandmother taking in these children is Florence Berry? If so, CHS will be delivering all the beds and bedding to her this weekend, as we also accepted the request for the 11 year old boy from the same family she also has. After talking with her, she told us she has taken in 2 of the other children as well so we bought beds, bedding for all of them, as well as for 1 of the grandchildren she already had.

Family's home is infested with mice and roaches. Children were placed with family members in hopes of cleaning out the home and making it a safe environment for them to return to. One of the children repeatedly gets lice and it's unsure if this is also coming from the home. The home needs extensive cleaning in addition to an exterminator. A dumpster would be helpful to the family in order to get rid of large items that may be infested. Cleaning supplies and/or services may be helpful as well. Also, hoping to provide a community to assist the family with future needs as the grandmother has custody of five grandchildren.

Mother has 7 children and has secured better housing in a better location still within the school district. This home is bigger so the children can have rooms. Mother has recently started working full time and the two smallest children are in daycare. The deposit on the new home is 2000.00. Mom has come up with 900.00 of the deposit needed to move in. DSS is asking for any help with meeting the remainder or helping with 500 of the deposit. Mom has indicated that the Landlord will break down the payment if she comes up with majority, but this could be a hardship in trying to pay rent and the added amount.

A mother who has fell on hard times has been working to get her children out of foster care. She has not had an easy journey but has continued to persevere despite life changing challenges. She has recently lost her job and is struggling significantly to maintain her home and transportation both of which are necessities for her children to be returned home. She has been in active recovery from substances and has tried hard to overcome this very detrimental struggle. She has also been actively enrolled in the county's Family Drug Treatment Court Program in an attempt to regain sobriety and take her life back from addiction. Additionally, she needs two tires on her car as her front two tires have wire showing. She is a hard worker, such a caring person who often puts the needs of others before her own and truly loves her children so much. I am sure she too would be thankful for anything that could help. She really just wants to be able to maintain her sobriety, stay in recovery and be reunited with her children. The department is asking for any financial contributions or donations that may help make a difficult time for a mother of three a little easier and even if just a thought and prayer for this mother to continue to remain resilient in her struggles would be appreciated.

Please consider providing a family with a few items to help them get through some difficult times. The family could use some trash cans to keep around their house to help maintain cleanliness. They could also use some dressers so that they can organize their clothes. The teenage daughter is running low on clothes as well. She wears a size 3X and size 20 in jeans. Her shoe size is 9 1/2. The mother is currently out of work due to health issues and therefore does not have the money to afford these things.

The family is living in rental property. The refrigerator that she owned stopped working in April of 2023. She has been using a mini fridge. She moved into a new rental property that did not come with a stove and refrigerator. She is using microwave to prepare meals. Having the proper appliances to store and prepare meals would ensure the family receives the best nutritional value in food prep and safety in food storage.
