Overview

I am a 44 year old mother of a teenage daughter. I have been participating in the Chicago Lights Case Management program for over a year.

My goals are to create a peace space for myself and my daughter to live.

I need some basic household essentials like towels, cleaning supplies, linens and dishes in order to make a sanctuary for myself and my daughter.

Meeting this need will help me because I recently was approved for disability but will need the extra assistance to get settled in my new place.
