A caregiver of an infant has recently completed inpatient substance abuse treatment and is actively working to maintain stability and provide a safe, nurturing home environment. The caregiver is engaged in services and demonstrating progress but lacks several essential items needed to safely care for the child.
The family is requesting an infant car seat, stroller, and rocking chair/glider. These items are critical to meet the child’s daily needs. The car seat will ensure safe transportation to medical appointments and essential services. The stroller will allow safe mobility outside the home, supporting routine, development, and community engagement. The rocking chair/glider will provide a safe and supportive space for feeding, soothing, and bonding with the infant.
Meeting these needs will directly support the caregiver’s ability to maintain stability, provide consistent care, and strengthen the parent-child bond. These items will reduce stress on the household and help ensure the child’s continued safety, well-being, and healthy development.
