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 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?
