A family in the community is currently in urgent need of housing. The family has been forced to evacuate from their home due to the condition being unfit for the children. Arrangements for the repairs are being coordinated, however, due to the home's unlivable environment, the children are unable to return at this time. The family has been residing in a motel for several weeks, but their financial resources have been exhausted. With no other friends or family to offer accommodation, the children will be at risk of entering foster care upon the conclusion of their stay. Given that the repairs are extensive, it is unknown when the children will be able to return home, however the family would be able to stay in a camper on their property until the repairs are completed. Staying in a camper would alleviate the finances of the motel so that the family could that money towards the repairs. The Department is requesting a donated camper or trailer for the family of 5 to reside in temporarily. The family consists of two adults a 14 y/o, 12 y/o, and 9 y/o.
Additionally, the family would greatly benefit from gas cards to ensure the children can continue getting to school and their appointments as one of the children has very high needs.
