Dad trying to get full custody of Daughter

Dad was able to finally exit homelessness almost a year ago. Now that he is stable, he is trying to get full custody of his 11-year-old daughter. Currently his daughter is living with her mother. Unfortunately, her mother is an alcoholic, which is starting to take a toll on his daughter's mental and physical health as well as her education.  My client himself is a recovering alcoholic, he has been sober for over 7 yrs. now, still attends AA meetings and does various hobbies to ensure his sobriety.  He has been the main contact for his daughter's school. Anything that may arise, the school contacts him due to the relationship the daughter and mother currently have. The only thing that he wants is for his daughter to be safe. He has been working over the last few months to try to get fulltime custody of his daughter.  He has been seeking legal help in the process when he has questions about the process or what he needs to complete. However, there is a fee associated with the paperwork that he needs to complete. He currently has a limited income, so he is struggling to get this paid. All paperwork that he will need to complete and send in comes to 60. Once he is able to complete this, he can start the actual legal process.
