This family in need consists of a single mom who has been working very hard to get her children back in her care. Mom has also been maintaining her sobriety; she has been sober for almost a year now and is on the track to graduate from all of her programs. Mom has four children, 3 girls (10, 2, 11 months) and 1 boy (4). Since mom has been on this positive track, she is moving closer to the children being returned to her. Every Saturday she spends time with all 4 children, and she has her 11-month-old with her all the time. Mom is requesting a twin stroller, bottles, and wipes. The twin stroller would be beneficial for mom when she is taking the children somewhere.

Help Reunify a Bio Family
This family in need has a 17-year-old male who is currently in foster care. The child lives with the father and younger sibling in a very small apartment. The child would like to start weekend visits with the family but does not have a bed. Due to limited space, the family could use a twin over twin bunk beds. A bed for the child would be an important step in re-unity. Thank you for your help!

The child would really like to go on a home visit to see dad; however, having no bed to sleep on is holding that up. Is it possible to temporarily provide an air mattress until an actual bed (mattress, frame and/ or box spring) can be provided?
