Help Strengthen a Bio Family

I am reaching out on behalf of a Spanish-speaking single mother who is in urgent need of rental assistance. She is currently pregnant and caring for two young children—one who is 5 years old and the other just 4 months old. Although she has been working to support her family, her vehicle recently broke down, preventing her from getting to work and resulting in a loss of income. She is now struggling to pay her rent and at risk of falling behind. Due to her current citizenship status, she has had difficulty qualifying for many rental assistance programs and organizations. Any support or resources available to help her during this challenging time would be deeply appreciated.

Help Improve a Child's Safety/Wellbeing

Family in Urgent Need of Safe Housing Support.

A single mother of two—one child just 2 years old and the other 17—is currently facing unsafe living conditions in her apartment. For some time, the unit has suffered from severe structural issues, including floors caving in and a large hole in the bathtub. While the landlord has recently started repairing the hole, they’ve now discovered a leak in the apartment that may require extended repairs.

Instead of providing a safe, habitable solution, the landlord has asked the mother and her children to temporarily relocate to another unit on the property that is known to be in even worse condition. The proposed unit has been reported to be infested with rodents and presents numerous additional concerns for the family's health and safety.

In her attempt to advocate for herself and her children, the mother reached out to the local housing department. Unfortunately, the only support offered was a letter allowing her to vacate the apartment. However, with her sole income being Supplemental Security Income (SSI), she lacks the financial resources to secure a new place to live—particularly the upfront costs such as a rental deposit.

This family urgently needs support to find safe and stable housing. Assistance with a security deposit or temporary housing could make all the difference in preventing homelessness and ensuring these children can live in a clean and secure environment.

Mo needs help with the electricity bill. The electricity bill is $323.98. When this need is met the children will be able to continue to live in a home that is cool as the hot Texas summer approaches. They will also be able to benefit from the refrigerator/freezer working and the washer/dryer. Any assistance would be helpful. Mo is
