Episode 13: Why A Mom Was Left Homeless with Her Child and Support Dog

In this episode, Kevin and I talk about a young mom, her three-year-old, and the support dog that helped keep her child calm while finding temporary shelter in a hotel room.

When Income Support cut them off and they ended up outside, I had to do something I’ve never done in over 35 years of advocacy, I called Children’s Services to report a child in danger. I explain what led up to that moment, how the system failed them, and what happened next. It’s not a simple story, but it’s one we need to talk about.
