How to Qualify

To be eligible, children must be between zero and seventeen years of age and must be sleeping without a mattress (or on a makeshift bed), without a bedframe, and without adequate bedding. We consider a makeshift bed to be:

• A couch
• Sleeping on the floor
• Sleeping on a pallet (blankets or clothes pushed together to make a bed)
• Sleeping with a family member

The Referral Form may be submitted by anyone, however, each child in need of a bed must be referred by a Referring Agency. Please be sure to have the Referring Agency’s information on hand when completing the Referral Form.
