Lilian* was 35 weeks pregnant, homeless and alone. The father of her baby had abandoned them both, and her parents had refused to let her return home after she had been released from prison. A month after she gave birth to her daughter, a social worker referred her to Boys’ Town Sanctuary Care to seek short-term care for her baby so that she would be free to work.
