MO DSS Children's Division - Cass County

Elizabeth (Liz) is a quiet, reserved, and gentle young woman who has been under the care and custody of the Missouri Children's Division since December 2022. Currently, Liz resides in an older youth apartment program through Cornerstones of Care and is working part-time. She receives intensive case management tailored for older youth. Liz holds a driver's license and is actively saving for a car while searching for full-time employment and completing her online high school program. Outside of the Children's Division, Liz has a very small support system, as her family is unable and unwilling to provide any assistance, and she has few friends. In her free time, she enjoys music, video games, and shopping.

Liz is currently living in an older youth apartment program, and she wants to keep her place clean and tidy. However, her vacuum recently broke, and she needs a new one to maintain the cleanliness of her apartment. Liz works part-time, and the program only covers her rent and utilities, leaving her unable to afford the cost of a new vacuum.
