Help Now	Phone Pre-Paid Card I am working with a client who recently turned 18 in April. Her mother has been pushing for her to be more independent and has decided to no longer pay the phone service she had. My client bought a pre-paid phone from Walmart and doesn't have any more funds to pay for another card. The client has been unable to contact resources to find more supports and has missed several calls/text messages due to not having service unless she is at a location with Wifi. She has found herself in high risk situations without a phone, this need would increase safety. My client would benefit from a $100 gift card to Walmart to purchase a pre-paid card for the phone carrier she has. Thank you for your consideration.
