A single mother with an open DCFS case has been working diligently to overcome significant challenges. To provide a bit of background, Mother lost her home when the case opened in 2021, and despite being homeless, she successfully completed her case plan. Recently, she has been able to secure stable housing, and in the same week, her children were returned to her care, marking a major milestone in her journey. However, mother is currently not employed due to a car accident that occurred a few months ago, which has placed further strain on her financial situation. At this time, mother is seeking assistance with essential household items that would significantly ease the burden of her new responsibilities as she works to settle her family and get her children into school. If assistance could be provided for these items, it would greatly alleviate stress and allow mother to focus on getting her children settled into their new routine and attending school, which will be an important adjustment for the family.
