Story
We are working with a 16 year-old client who has been in foster care for the past 4 years due to the substance abuse and addiction her parents have been experiencing, and is finally now living with her adult sister. Her sister lost her job several months ago which resulted in getting behind in rent and ultimately being evicted and losing their possessions. They have now secured housing and our client is striving to attend school and catch up on her studies. She currently only has a full-size mattress and dearly needs bedroom furniture. Ideally, she would benefit from a full-size bedframe (in black if possible), a full-size mattress protector, sheets, and comforter (in red if possible), a small dresser (in black if possible) and a lamp (as her room currently does not have a light). Due the instability of their living situation it is not possible currently for the adult sister to apply yet to become her legal guardian -but our hope is that as their situation improves that Guardianship will be able to be achieved.
