Diaper Bank – Multicultural Child And Family Hope Center

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The Multicultural Diaper Bank is a part of the Help Me Grow network of diaper banks throughout Pierce County. Our diaper bank was established in June 2020 after seeing a great need in our community amid many programs shutting down due to the rapid spread of COVID-19. Household supplies were low to none in every store because of panic buying. Many households were unable to buy their essential hygiene items such as diapers and wipes. As a response to this need, our agency and many others in Pierce County partnered with Help Me Grow to build a network of diaper banks for all families.

Family Resource Centers of Pierce County

The Family Support Partnership (FSP) is a community driven partnership that promotes safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments for all children. Through a network of Family Resource Centers and evidence-based programs and services they work collectively to promote and strengthen protective factors to prevent and mediate childhood trauma. Vision: All children and families thrive in safe, stable nurturing relationships and environments. Mission: Mobilize a network of Family Resource Centers to strengthen protective factors within families. Family resource centers are community-based, flexible, family-focused, and culturally sensitive facilities that provide programs and services based on the needs of families. Family resource centers promote both the strengthening of families through formal and informal support and the restoration of a strong sense of community. Family Resource Centers are more than just a place but also represent a different philosophy and process than traditional approaches to providing services for families. They are proactive, accessible and parent/community informed. The FSP focuses on children, youth, and families. Our programs encourage family members to build healthy bonds. The Family Resource Centers are welcoming hubs that connect families to a wide array of services that promote protective factors. It is a partner-driven effort to prevent childhood adversity. Family Resource Centers provide services that strengthen and empower families in three-strategy areas: Systems Navigation Support, Family Management, and Community Connections.

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH)

PSH is dedicated to families where the Head of Household has a qualifying disability, as well the family must be considered Chronically Homeless.

This model is dedicated to permanent housing where a family can stay while paying approximately 30% of their adjusted gross income towards rent. Supportive services focus on helping the family maintain their housing. Sometimes there is a possibility that a disability can be overcome in which case the case manager works with the family on education and/or employment goals.

We are frequently asked how long a family can stay in PSH. The answer is they can stay forever as long as they continue to follow their lease agreement. Occasionally we need to say goodbye to someone who increases their income to the point they no longer qualify. That is always a time to celebrate.

Low Income Affordable Housing

LASA also owns nine units of housing including 2 bedroom duplexes, as well as 3 and 4 bedroom single family homes. These units are eligible to low income families experiencing homelessness. The family must be able to receive an income in order to pay the rent, which is typically 30-40% below market rate.

LASA does not maintain a waiting list. Most of our openings are listed through Coordinated Entry

Rapid Rehousing (RRH)

Rapid Rehousing accepts individuals and families referred to us by Coordinated Entry.

This program can assist with move in costs and short-term rental subsidy for qualified households. Using the Housing First model we address homelessness and provide resources to address other needs and barriers clients may have.

This program seeks to meet clients where they are in life; they focus on what the clients want and need. Clients are in charge of their destinies and know their situation better than the referring agencies do. Families also receive referrals to employment services, mental health services, and resources to gain tools for self-sufficiency. Empowering clients to take control of their lives is the key to our community's Family Permanent Housing Programs.

Rental Assistance (RA)

3 to 4 times a year LASA is able to help families and individuals that have received a notice that they must pay rent or vacate. The household may be provided with referrals to other services they need. LASA does not provide case management with rental assistance.

Emergency Shelter (ES)

LASA's emergency shelter is different than many emergency shelters. LASA's units are turn-key apartments. This means that after we admit a family to the shelter they have their own 2 bedroom apartment for 30 days.

This comes with a case manager who helps the family move to permanent housing. Meanwhile the family pays nothing for the service, and is able to save towards their future home.

Essential Needs Closet (ENS)

LASA offers individuals and families hygiene products, diapers/ wipes, socks, coats and other essential needs from our Essential Needs Closet.

We would like to acknowledge that 253 Therapy and Consult operates on the ancestral lands of the Steilacoom people. We recognize and honor the Steilacoom Tribe, their elders past and present, and all indigenous peoples who have stewarded this land throughout the generations.

As a therapy practice, we commit to centering cultural humility, respect, and inclusivity in our work. We aim to create a safe, inclusive, and welcoming space for all individuals, recognizing the diverse experiences, backgrounds, and identities of our clients.

We acknowledge that land acknowledgements are just one small step towards justice and reconciliation. We are committed to ongoing learning, challenging colonial practices, and supporting initiatives that promote equity, representation, and self-determination for indigenous peoples.

We express our gratitude to the Steilacoom Tribe for their stewardship of this land and their ongoing contributions to the broader community. May we all work together to build a more just and inclusive future, where the rights and voices of indigenous peoples are respected and celebrated.
