Story
We are currently working with a dedicated mother and father who are raising five children, ages 7, 8, 10, 13, and 14. The Department is actively supporting the family as they address an ongoing hair lice outbreak. One significant barrier to fully resolving the issue is the family’s inability to afford new bedding, which is essential to prevent re-infestation and maintain a clean and healthy home environment.
The family is facing financial hardship, and the father, who is undocumented, has limited income opportunities. Despite these challenges, both parents have shown commendable effort and cooperation in managing the situation. The children are doing well academically and socially, and the family is fully receptive to the Department’s assistance.
To support this family in eradicating the outbreak and promoting a safe and sanitary living space, we are requesting the following items: • 3 full-size mattresses • 2 full-size comforter sets (2 set black and grey) 1 full-size comforter set (Princess theme) • 8 pillows
Any assistance or support in providing these essentials would make a significant difference in helping this family move forward in a healthy and stable environment.
