Just out of curiosity where is the father? If not in the picture is he at least paying child support?
Do you have any immediate or extended family to help?

Heroin problem has always been here from what I can tell but in the early 2000's the numbers did seem to rise however not having a meth issue here can be a blessing in disguise. Home grown meth labs are something else

Shouldn't the diapers, wipes, toiletries be the main focus of need?
Who cares about toys for the kids when they don't have basic necessities . Hell you can get them toys after Xmas when shits on sale just say Santa was late or some bs.

Reply to Is the homeless situation that bad now? by Vallejotacoz
California homeless vs Rhode Island homeless are polar opposites. You can watch all the Youtube videos but until you go there its on another level compared to here.
CA has nice weather year round while RI doesn't
CA has had a "meth" problem for decades while RI has barely seen a meth issue here.

Wow this sucks to hear, I remember going to this spot as kid for comics and just recently went a couple months ago. Didn't even know they moved locations prior.

Here's a tip if you are paying in cash. Not only will you have more power negotiating but certain ones might give you a receipt for less than what you paid so you don't get it that bad at the DMV. wink wink

With a heavy Portuguese population around here there should be something close, maybe even in Fall River.

Food For The Soul yes has mixed reviews never tried myself but might be a budget option. Oh yes Flames not Blaze, definitely the spot even with limited soul food offerings.

Soul Food Restaurants and Restaurants w/ soul food options
Food For The Soul ( longest one open that I'm aware of and cheap ) newer options Gee Gee's and Sommers Corner ( pricey in my opinion) - never eaten at any.
Jamaican restaurants with soul food options Flames and Island House - at at both but never went there for soul food. Both good and average pricing

Citizens just because there everywhere in RI and New England, and even span out to NYC and PA.
Bank RI is decent
Coastal 1 ( formerly Pawtucket Credit Union ) is decent

You are a DACA recipient and your boyfriend is here w/o papers , you both have volatile immigration status , I mean ask yourself what loan officer in their right mind would give you a loan on top of that you are coming into at least 7% interest, regular citizens have a hard time with this currently.

There use to be a running joke, the NY system wiener's only tasted better on a tatted hairy arm with track marks lol. Due to hygiene concerns that practice is now obsolete.

Not sure what type of Buddhism you are looking at but there are about 4 Theravada temples that cater to both Laotian and Cambodian communities in RI and the one for the Thai community in Mass. .
Cambodian temples - Cranston and Providence
Laotian temples - Smithfield and Woonsocket
Thai temple - Raynham, MA

Does anyone remember a venue from the early 90's right next to the old McDonalds and Sportsman Inn in downtown. Forget the name

Go to Crossroads and the area near there on Broad St as a place you don't want to end up.

Reply to Restaurant deals? by bpear
Hook & Reel Cajun Seafood in Warwick offers a $45.99 all you can eat on Mon - Thu all day , only caveat is a 90 min time limit.
Currently the best meal deal I've seen is large pizza 5 toppings for $9.99 at Dominos but not every location so you gotta call and check. The one that offers this is North Main St Providence.

I remember a couple years back Pre Covid, there was a suicide right off the off ramp exit 23 North next to the Marriot. Followed the story for about a week no name no nothing given per any media outlet. Still unsure who that person was.
