Currently working with a single dad who has been sober for 5 years. He has been fighting to gain custody of his 2 girls for the past 4 years and now the courts have awarded 50% custody. He found an affordable place to live but has nothing since he was staying with family. The pace is really small so he doesn't need to much, he will be sleeping in the living room so a sofa bed or futon will work.

Hello, I am making this request for a family of 9. This family recently reunited and the Department is working on stabilizing the family. The mother was provided housing by the Family Reunification Program, and is in great need with assistance to furnish the home. Previously, the mother and the children were living with the maternal grandmother, which was causing a lot of discomfort, due to there being a large amount of people living in the home. The children have stated they are thrilled to be living in a home for themselves, and are looking forward to making their new home, feel like home. The mother is currently employed, but is only making enough to support the children and additional bills. The children's ages include: 15, 14, 13, 11, 10, 9, 8, 5. The mother is hopeful she can have a large sectional couch, in order to be able to sit the children during family time.
The client is a single mother, 64 years old caregiver raising her 3 nephews, ages 16, 15 and 12. The client is working with the YMCA Kinship Support Program to access ongoing resources but is currently in need of two twin beds with mattresses. The caregiver is having financial struggles and she only has money for basic needs. When this need is met, client will be able to provide adequate bedding for the children.

The client is a single mother who recently ended her relationship with the father due to ongoing domestic violence. The mother is strong a resilient. To continue to ensure her child's safety, the mother would like to purchase cameras to place in her window to provide further surveillance for her home until she can move to a new apartment, however, she currently does not have the funds for the expense. As such, I am requesting Target/Walmart/Amazon gift cards to assist the mother with the cost of cameras.

A single Dad has been working diligently, and has been for years, to have his 3 children (ages 11, 10, and 9) returned to his care. Dad is paralyzed from the neck down, wheelchair bound, due to a spinal cord injury he sustained in 2014. He was living in Nevada when his children were removed from their mother's care due to her involvement in a violent relationship with her boyfriend. As soon as he could, Dad and his support network (his mother and sister) relocated to California in hopes of reunifying the family. Unfortunately, due to the COVID19 pandemic, he could not secure stable housing. He maintained close contact with the children, while living in motels or staying with various relatives. He was finally able to secure stable housing and has a 2-bderoom apartment. PGM lives close by and is a significant support to the family. He and the kids have been enjoying weekend visits at the home. The kids and Dad want nothing more than to be able to be together, especially since the Holidays are approaching. Dad has overcome so many obstacles. The family needs bunk beds and 2 dressers in order for the kids to be placed with Dad.
Thank you!

A family was recently reunified, and mother spent all of her resources in order to obtain and apartment to get her children returned. However, she is currently in need of a refrigerator as the one she was gifted recently broke, and she cannot afford to purchase another one. It is important that she has a refrigerator in order to meet the needs of her children and be able to store and prepare food. A refrigerator would greatly impact this family by helping the mother to meet her children's needs and keep this family together. The mother has worked hard to get her children returned, but all of her resources are currently going to rent, utilities, and basic necessities. A refrigerator could help the children from reentering care by allowing the mother to meet her children's needs. Your help is greatly appreciated to help keep this family together and help this single mother care for her children. Thank you for your help and consideration.

This is a kinship placement that began when this young girl was 8 months old. Her mother was 16yrs old and could not imagine being a teen mother. So this grandmother has been in a shelter with her grandmother for almost 1year. Grandmother was approved for an housing program , Housing Key! This provision provided her with the approval for a 2 bedroom townhouse. She has absolutely nothing to go in the home. The 16 yr old child is an excellent student and has not allowed these challenges to stop her from excelling in school. They assistance will allow them to have a fresh restart and enjoy her junior year of high school. Grandmother is so grateful to be out of the shelter and ready for her new home.
The client is a single parent in her late 40s caring for her 15yo bio-son and her 4yo daughter (who is biologically considered a Non-Related-Extended-Family-Member). While the client does receive a little financial assistance/help around the house from her long-term best friend/roommate, the client has been raising her daughter since she was just a few months old with no official financial assistance. Though the client is looking into applying for CalWORKs, those funds wouldn’t kick in for a least another few months. Since raising her, the client has co-slept with her daughter. While this has worked in the past, as her daughter continues to grow, the client has been hoping to get her, her own “big-girl” bed. Ideally the client would like a Twin sized bed/mattress so that it will continue to fit her daughter as she grows. The family is also requesting a $150 gift card to Target if possible. Those funds would go towards bedding and pillow for the daughter, as well as other household needs—hygiene supplies, cleaning supplies, etc. The client has expressed her gratitude with whatever assistance the family is able to get.
