Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing
Youth is 16 and placed in a hotel for CWOP. Youth has been accepted into a residential treatment facility and has been hesitant to go. Youth has finally decided he will go, but insists on having a fan and some rechargable batteries to go along with it before he will go. Youth has a lower IQ and this is a breaking point for him. The facility will not allow a fan that plugs into the wall. If this request can be met, it will get the youth out of the hotel and into a placement to help him get treatment! Youth has had very good behavior while in the hotel and this could be a huge possibility for him. Thank you in advance!

Timely assistance with this bill will provide temporary relief as the mother continues efforts to stabilize her financial situation.

Help Strengthen a Bio Family
Mother lives alone with her two year old child and is currently saving money to afford transportation as she currently relies on Uber as it eventually gets expensive. Mother's priority at this time is to provide a safe environment for her child and is in need of a doorbell camera and a baby monitor just to be vigilant of her surroundings in her home as she resides with just her two year old son and as a woman is afraid of her surroundings it is very difficult for Mother to afford these items due to having all the financial responsibility on her self. This will help the family feel safer and comfortable in their own home and to also be more vigilant of the crime in the surrounding areas.

Help Preserve a Kinship Placement
Hello, I’m requesting food assistance on behalf of my paternal aunt, who has taken on the responsibility of caring for her brother’s two young children. Despite applying for food stamps, she was denied due to being slightly over the income limit. However, with the added financial burden, she is barely making ends meet. She is doing her best to provide for the children while also supporting her brother, who is experiencing a severe mental health crisis after the tragic loss of his wife. My aunt is doing everything she can, but she urgently needs help to continue supporting her family during this difficult time.
