Proof That Help Is Already Reaching the Field
When a family needs help, you do not have hours to search for the right referral.
The Alliance Resource Directory brings hundreds of vetted South Texas nonprofits into one place, including support for rental assistance, mental health services, employment help, food, clothing, parenting support, and more.
It is free for DFPS caseworkers, CPA case managers, and Belong caseworkers, and we will send it straight to your inbox.
A Simple Way to Meet Concrete Needs
Through the Alliance Prevention Network, trained DFPS caseworkers, CPA case managers, and Belong caseworkers can submit vetted needs for parents, kinship caregivers, and families on their caseload.
A bed. A car repair. Groceries. A utility bill. A crib. A local church team responds with practical help and begins building relationship with the family.
To submit a need, you first become an APN requestor. The training is quick and free, and once you are trained, you can submit needs anytime.
You stay focused on the case. They help carry the need.
Support for You and Your Unit
You spend your days carrying urgent needs, hard conversations, and heavy decisions. The Alliance helps support the people doing that work every day.
We can bring breakfast and snacks to your unit, provide Caseworker Kits with items you actually use in the field, and help host unit meetings, graduations, holiday parties, and other moments that matter to your team.
Tell us what would help, and we will work with you to set it up.
JingleMart
JingleMart gives relative caregivers a dignified way to choose Christmas gifts for the children they are raising.
Event information and registration details are made available each October. If you know a kinship family who could use support during the Christmas season, visit our events calendar in October to see current JingleMart opportunities and next steps.
