My name is Adina Parisi. I’m a recovering homeless mother of two children looking to stabilize my life and change our future. My children are with their father's family, and I need to show stable residence and funds to care for them. I’m a felon until probation is up and looking for work, but due to troubles, I am having a hard time starting from scratch and continuing a healthy lifestyle. I need help. I have a powerful story and have been through so much these last 3 years, and my heart breaks for my babies. They need me!!

I’m happy to update and let you know how appreciative and grateful I am. As broken as I am, I’m hoping to grab some hope for my children, who are much more crushed by the situation. They have cut off all communication, and my support is little to none. With a heart so full, this is my last chance to gain guardianship back due to me giving temporary care of my kids to their father's family, ensuring they remain safe and cared for while I get on my feet. I was left outside one day by their father after the fact, with no words or thoughts of consideration for me. Doing this now alone, my father is a disabled veteran, and my mother takes care of him and can help me minimally due to their regulations. Thank you. Every dollar will be saved until I have enough for our own place and enough to regain what my children may need for me to receive them back
