Transportation Need
Posted by bridgetmack in Ride Assistance, Transportation, Vouchers / Fares / Tickets on August 26th, 2010
A teenage girl in foster care is struggling with transportation issues. She lives too close to JCHS to qualify for free bus transportation, so she would have to pay $90/semester to ride the bus. Her worker has talked to the school transportation director and several others in the community to try to find some help, but has not had any help. If you think you might be able to help with this transportation need please contact this young lady’s worker, Kari Little, at (573) 751-9025 or Kari.M.Little@dss.mo.gov. Thank you for your assisstance!

A mother of 3 has relapsed and to avoid her 3 young children being placed in foster care the grandmother has 30 days to find beds for the children. This grandmother is in need of 3 twin beds or a combination of a toddler bed and 2 twin beds or a baby bed (crib) with 2 twin beds. They also are in need of sheets, pillows and blankets for the beds, size 3 and/or size 4 diapers, wipes, three car seats, towels and wash clothes.

Gas Card or help with transportation needed
Posted by bridgetmack in Transportation, Vouchers / Fares / Tickets on July 2nd, 2010
There is a family where the mother is working towards transitioning her children back to her home after they have been out of her home for almost 6 years. The children live in Washington county, which is a 3 ½ hour drive for the mother one way. She has visits with her children one day per week and is really struggling to make ends meet due to the gas prices. While the children are transitioning to the home, the mother could benefit from a gas card to help her with the cost of gas to and from her visits with her children. It is our hope to move the children home with the mother, whom lives in Jefferson City, within the next month. If you can help provide with this need please contact Children’s Division worker, Tara Van Loo (573) 751-9020 or through email at Tara.J.VanLoo@dss.mo.gov Thank you!
