Overview
I am 31 years, and I am currently unemployed. I suffer from seizures. My condition prevents me from obtaining or maintaining stable employment.
My goals are making sure that my children have everything that they need to be successful in life. There emotion and physical well being his my main focus at this time.
I need to buy new school uniforms for my children (Alisha- 8 years old and Amrai- 3 years old). I want them to have uniforms that fit properly so that they don't have to feel ashamed or embarrassed when they attend school. I want them to fit in with the other children.
Meeting this need will help so I can focus on other needs that my children might have. This will also help my children to feel confident, and make them feel equal to everyone else. My children will not have to worry about their uniform looking or fitting differently from everyone else.

I am Anthony's Probation Officer. I have been working with Anthony since March 2019. Anthony has high hopes and aspirations for both himself and his children. Anthony is not the custodial parent for his children, but he maintains a close relationship with them (e.g. he picks them up from school at least three time a week voluntarily). His relationship with his children is his number one priority. Anthony attempts to financially and emotionally support his children as much as possible. Anthony suffers from seizures which is an obstacle in his life. His seizures hinders him from maintaining employment. Anthony would be so appreciative for the help.
