Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

The 17-year-old female child in this home is about to enter her senior year of high school. She recently found her father deceased in his home and is going through mental health treatment for that incident and prior trauma. She has a history in the foster care system. She is trying to apply for jobs and create a sense of normalcy following that incident. She has inherited her father's vehicle, but her family has been unable to afford driver's training school in order for her to obtain her permit and/or license. We are hoping for monetary assistance or donation from a driving school that would allow her to receive classroom and behind-the-wheel instruction. This would greatly support her emotional well-being as she works through her grief process.

Help Reunify a Bio Family

Parents have found an income based housing that does have an opening for them to move into. Parents have discussed being able to afford the ongoing rent moving forward but are asking for any assistance possible so they can cover the deposit and buying furniture for their new apartment. Parents are currently homeless, and staying with friends. By getting into a stable residence, they could have a safe and stable living environment and have their son returned to their care.
