Mother recovered from severe COVID recently and income has not been stable due to side effects of covid. Mother lost her job after being sick due to mental health of teen daughter. Mother recently started a new job and has missed a lot due to severe health issues. As a result mother has not been able to provide for home. DCCCA is looking for a donor willing to pay for daughters apple IPAD repair @ I Break U Fix. The daughter's birthday was a couple weeks ago and due to health issues and finances mother was unable to do anything for her. Having this IPAD repair bill paid would be a blessing and gift to both mother and daughter. The IPAD charging port was replaced and is ready for pickup when payment is made. This mother has had a lot of trust issues working with DCCCA and assistance with this would allow mother to know she is making good choices in taking care of her health. Mother has a lot of anxiety about not working and paying bills as she has never been behind or late on bills. As a result, she tends to focus on these things vs. her and daughter's health concerns.

We are working with a family that could use a hand up at this time. Mom had emergency gallbladder surgery, resulting in 3 weeks off work recovering without pay. Dad also recently took a cut in pay, so this family is struggling financially. They are currently $447.31 past due on their electric bill. This is causing the family a lot of stress, as keeping the electricity on is critical in preventing the removal of their child from the home. Any amount toward this need would be greatly appreciated and will be a preventative measure to avoid the disruption of this well-bonded family unit.

I am working with a single mom of 3 children with developmental disabilities and mental health issues. Mom herself has a life-threatening physical illness, making it impossible for her to work. She is expecting a settlement in the next couple of months due to the chemicals that caused of her illness. In the meantime, she needs help with replacing the furniture in her living room that was previously ruined due to children's incontinence issues. I am asking for waterproof furniture (pleather) that would allow mom and children comfortable seating to congregate. Any donations towards these items will be a huge support to this loving mom who is doing a fantastic job of raising her children despite her own challenges and theirs.

There is an NRKIN on my caseload who took in a sibling set of three, with the younger two being twins. Since taking these three children in, the foster mother has been incredible in getting the children up to date on medical appointments, and enrolling them in services. It is suspected that the younger of the twins may have cerebral palsy and had a stroke in the womb. This NRKIN has requested a care portal service, as the physical therapist for the twins (whom are under 2 years of age) has recommended a rebounder for medicinal and therapeutic use. The request is due to the family having multiple children, and this would financially help them out instead of paying for it out of pocket. Thank you for your time and consideration!

Children’s Division is requesting assistance for a relative that is caring for 2 children on a safety plan. The children are currently staying with a relative, but is needing some assistance with Daycare while the children are in their home. The relative is paying $200 a week total for the children in daycare, while they work. The children were placed in their home as part of an emergency safety plan, therefore the relative was not accepting to provide for daycare on short notice. If the need is met this would help the relative financially until further arrangements can be made, along with Children’s Division and the family coming up with a more permanent solution

Hello everyone, I have a 16-year-old male on my caseload that is nearing a permanency goal of guardianship. Recently, the foster mother in this case has experienced a variety of different stressors including financial issues related to housing. Due to this, the family is needing extra assistance in affording salon hair care for the 16 y/o. Both the child and parent have also expressed having minimal knowledge of how to care for his hair, so having this service provided for them will be both a financial and educational help.
