Needed - 7-10 daysReceived: Mar 02 2026
The Department is working with a single mother with two children (ages 14 female & 5 male). The youngest child is diagnosed with autism and is non-verbal. Currently, he is waiting for insurance approval to participate in ABA therapy.
He is in need of spinning chair to assist with regulation and with calming his anxiety.
Example:

The minor child can have extreme tantrums, due to his inability to communicate his needs/wants. It is our hope that the spinning (sensory chair) will assist him with minimizing the tantrums, in hopes that he is able to regulate his sensory needs. While allowing his mother the opportunity to address other issues, as much of her attention is devoted to his needs.
Likewise, the mother struggles with the management of his tantrums and we're working with her to increase her knowledge on his diagnosis and ways to appropriately manage his behaviors. At this time, the mother has very limited income; therefore, purchasing the chair is out of reach.

Needed - 7-10 daysReceived: Feb 09 2026
The family consists of a mother and child. The mother shared that the child witnessed physical, emotional, verbal, and domestic violence between his mother and father. Due to that reason, the mother left the father, and has been actively seeking shelter in various places.
They previously resided at Brookwood Inn, which closed on August 31, 2025. She was then placed at Red Roof Inn, but funding ran out to pay for the family to reside there. Due to that reason, they moved into the home with a family friend. The family friend has given the family until February 13, 2026 to find a place to reside.
She has been referred to several shelters that have advised that they are full, has applied for emergency housing with the Statesville Housing Authority, and is actively working part time.
She has a vehicle that is in "limp mode" with the maintenance light on; therefore, transportation is limited. The family is in need of assistance with a place to reside ($500) and vehicle maintenance ($500).
