Help Now	Potty training items I am working with a mother who would like to start potty training her special needs children. The family recently moved and does not have the items or resources to purchase potty training chairs. She is looking for either donated potty chairs or a gift card to purchase one. The family also is in need of mattresses and bedframes as they have two blow up mattresses they are currently using to sleep on for four kids and one adult. Other local resources have been explored for this, but due to the family's location of where they moved to, we are running into barriers with local agencies. The family would be able to locate a vehicle to pick up some bed items and are either looking for donated items or gift cards to purchase.
