I am working with a mother and father, who have a young child- and are struggling with lack of financial resources to replace the door to their home. They currently do not have a front door- it is entirely broken, and just props up on the frame at night but is not at all attached. It is a safety hazard to the family to not have a door to their home, putting them at risk of harm. Any assistance that could be provided to this family to either obtain a new door, or help them put the door in would be greatly appreciated.

I am working with a single mother of 7 children, with minimal support and money- who is in need of child proofing door handles. Some door alarms have already been provided to her, but she could benefit from the door handles as well- to keep her young children inside at all times- as some of her children are very young.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
A family of 6 is currently in emergent need of housing. The family is comprised of two grandparents caring for their four granddaughters; one of which is only a few weeks old. This family has recently been evicted from their home and have been staying in a motel while searching for housing, however, they will no longer have the funds to continue their stay past 6/17. With no housing the children are at risk of coming into foster care as they need a safe environment to reside. This risk could be resolved with the extension of the motel while the Department assists the family in finding housing.

Help Prevent a Child From Entering Foster Care
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out on behalf of a dedicated single father who is working hard to provide a safe and stable environment for his two young daughters. He is currently in urgent need of two car seats to ensure his girls can travel safely and legally.
Despite financial challenges, this father is doing everything he can to meet his children’s needs. However, the cost of car seats is currently beyond his reach, and he would be incredibly grateful for any assistance or donation to help secure these essential items.
We are looking for:
One car seat suitable for a toddler age 3
One car seat for a younger child or infant age 1

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
The mother and 4 children were deemed to have been residing in poor/unsafe living conditions. The building inspector had deemed the residence to be an unsafe structure with multiple repairs needed before the family could reside in the home. As of 06/16/2025, the home was inspected, and the inspector granted the family permission to enter the home because some of the requirements had been completed. The children are in need of appropriate bedding. The beds were deemed unsafe. Bunk beds or twin beds are needed, new or used. The family would need mattresses and appropriate coverings for the beds. The home is also in need of a couch, new or gently used, for the living room area. The couch that is in the home is in poor condition and needs to be transported to the county dump. The mother has no transportation and relies on a friend or anyone that can assist herself and family.

I am working with a teenage girl, and her mother, who are currently experiencing homelessness and living at the shelter. The child does not have access to any electronics, and suffers from mental health disorders. She could benefit from having a kindle or a tablet of some sort to aide in her de- escilating/ calming when needed. She has no resources to aide her in this way currently.

Help Reunify a Bio Family
This request is for a family CarePortal has recently helped in the BV area. Five-year-old non-verbal autistic child is on a trial home placement. Services are limited in the area and both the child and mother are utilizing some services that require a bit of travel. Finances are currently strained while they cannot get SNAP for the child, as he is still in foster care. The family paid for travel weekly for 9 months for visitation and parenting courses, which caused the family a financial deficit. The mother cannot work due to the child's high level of needs which prevents him from being successful in a daycare setting. The father works fulltime, but is responsible for covering all the bills, which he does. The child's trial home placement will continue for approximately 3 more months, following which the family will be able to receive benefits for the child. The family is in need of assistance with gas cards to assist with transportation, pull-ups, and groceries. The mother continues to work on toilet training and has been utilizing food banks, but the child is unwilling to eat most foods provided by the food bank. Pull-ups needed are children size XL.
