Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
Family of 3 consists of a grandmother with custody of her 2 granddaughters (ages 17 and 9). Grandmother and children are currently homeless. Grandmother has placed children with a family friend until she can secure housing. Grandmother has applied for an apartment but does not have the financial means to pay the application fee. The family has court involvement, and the Department is concerned that without housing, the judge may order the children into foster care at the upcoming hearing. Please consider helping this family complete their application for housing.

Help Improve a Child's Wellbeing
The girl, who is 16 years old, has experienced frequent transitions between foster homes and relative placements throughout her life. We are actively supporting her in maintaining regular school attendance, as she faces challenges related to social anxiety and behavioral concerns. She is currently residing with a relative for a short period, tho she is planning to get custody and due to her recent mobility, she has limited clothing and underwear available. While she is making progress—attending summer school and preparing to begin a life skills program—she would greatly benefit from any assistance with clothing and personal items.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
You have helped this family before. This family needs assistance with groceries. In the past, the family has gone to food pantries but reported they do not provide enough food to feed everyone and it is only on certain days. This is challenging due to issues with transportation. They have to borrow a vehicle. There are four adults in the household. One of the adults is on disability and the other has medical problems and therefore cannot work. There are two children in the household. Due to health issues and transportation issues, it would be easier for them to have groceries brought to them. They like hamburger, chicken nuggets, pizza bites, veggies, bread, eggs, sugar, juice, milk, cheese, pasta. Guardian reported they like anything and are not picky, they just want meals, snacks and water). Whatever provided would be helpful. They also are in need of baby things like (Huggies little mover size 4), Children's Tylenol liquid grape Flavor, and Huggies wipes. The child has reactions to things, so Huggies is the only brand they use.

This could help tremendously! A little assistance can help preserve this placement! A grocery card would be helpful so that the family may shop for what they need!
