A child who was placed in DHS custody 2 weeks ago will be turning 18 years old on Saturday. She's currently in a youth shelter in Ardmore and as we were planning for her transition to adulthood, we realized there are things she needs we haven't been able to provide due to the short time in DHS custody.

When she returns to Tulsa on Saturday, she will need a Tulsa bus pass and a pre paid cell phone so she can get around Tulsa to apply for housing, attend medical appointments and look for a job. She plans to be a server until she can go to cosmetology school or veterinary tech school.

The Oklahoma Successful Adulthood program can assist her in the future but not before Saturday.

Please consider assisting this youth transition to adulthood.

A sweet family took placement of a child in March, and they are not receiving any financial assistance from OKDHS at this time. Throughout the placement, the family has managed their finances well. After paying their monthly expenses at their original location this month, they were informed their landlord sold the property and requested the family to move immediately; after making all required bill payments and rent at the location. The family has located a new residence. They were able to make the initial deposit and take care of moving expenses. However, they are now short of $300 for rent for the new residence. They have reached out to community resources and have been unsuccessful with obtaining assistance. As a last resort the family has reached out to OKDHS for assistance to help cover the remaining $300. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Without having the added expenses for the future months to come, the family will be back on track in managing their bills. The family and I thank you for any assistance you can provide.
