GIVIT

Domestic & Family Violence
K and her 4 and 1-year old girls (2) had been finding it hard and moved from friends and family periodically. This caused some risk to K and her family, which lead her to us for assistance.
K has been adapting to her new lifestyle and is paying her rent and paying off her bond slowly in a timely manner, but this is all new to her and she is struggling with the budgeting. Her struggle currently is with buying enough food for the three of them. She also is very prideful and did not let me know until she had struggled through Easter with only enough for her precious children. She also told me she decided to borrow $100 from her family to support her through. I am setting her up with some budgeting skills but would like to ask for some assistance in the way of vouchers so she can complete a decent top up of her food supply and also if she struggles, I can give them to her as needed. I believe she is very capable young lady and will in the longer term be able to cope.
