Story

•
5 Children 1 Adult

There is a great grandmother in need of a twin bed and a toddler bed, mattresses, and bedding. Since 2013, Great grandma has been taking in her great grandchildren. Three have since been adopted by her; female age 12, female age 8, and male age 7. Recently, two younger siblings (males ages 4 and 1.5) have been placed in her care and to move forward with level I licensing, every child needs to have their own bed as per code. The immediate need is a twin bed. The four-year-old is rather tall for his age and needs a twin bed. He currently is sleeping in his great grandmother's bed with her or sharing with a sibling. The 1-year-old (17 month) is in his crib still and will transition into a toddler bed soon, as he is also growing fast. Due to legal circumstances, there is no caregiver funding yet available to the family for the two youngest children. Once the beds are in place, they can get licensed and funding will start, but that is not expected to happen until late July with the first payment received by the caregiver in mid-August.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Case Manager supports this family at Olmsted County due to the youngest child in the home being diagnosed with autism as well as a rare diagnosis of Neurocutaneous Melanosis which causes moles to grow all over his body that have a high probability of developing into melanoma. Mom is currently the main caretaker of both children in the home and due to the youngest's needs, she is not able to hold a job outside the home. This has caused difficulty in taking care of bills. Due to a recent shift in services as well as an increase in rent, the family is looking at getting an eviction notice for late rent. Family has explored all resources but unfortunately there is no funding until August but July rent will be challenging to pay. They currently owe 693.44 for July rent. Any help is appreciated. The rental company is called River Glen.
