This family has endured unimaginable hardship and continues to face overwhelming challenges every day. The single parent is raising seven children alone, all while managing her own disabilities and mental health concerns. The family has a long history of complex trauma, extreme family violence, and addiction that has deeply impacted every aspect of their lives. Five of the children are on the Autism spectrum (ranging from Level 3 to Level 2), and five have ADHD requiring daily medication and consistent supervision. The combination of neurodiverse needs, trauma recovery, and single parenting makes everyday life an immense struggle. Despite these challenges, this parent continues to show incredible courage and love, doing everything possible to create stability and safety for her children. This family urgently needs support to help reduce the daily stress and pressures they face, so they can continue their journey toward healing, and a brighter future together.
