Homeless Mom with 2 Toddlers Has New Hope

This homeless mom and her two sons (1 & 2 years old) were living in an abandoned car in Pleasanton.  A woman passing by the parking lot where she was gave her a CityServe card.  Within 30 minutes of receiving her phone call, we had met with her and put her on the phone with the intake line of a local shelter as well as contacting Child Care Links to request diapers for the boys and help with subsidized child care.  We immediately arranged a 5 night motel stay to help them stabilize and will reach out to local churches to try to extend those motel nights.  Needs:  housing, low cost child care so she can work, a donated vehicle, a job.  We will continue to work with this family to achieve those goals.
