Deplorable conditions in the Nob Hill Apartments in southeast Kansas City are putting more than 80 families at risk of losing their homes and into crisis, and the Community Assistance Council has put out a call for help.

The families could soon be displaced from the apartments at 9422 Cleveland Ave, Kansas City, Mo., because of dangerous conditions that disqualify the building from government subsidized housing programs. Of these 83 families, 37 have children in the Hickman Mills School District. 

The CAC is wants the public’s help as the CAC works to get the families resettled in livable conditions — and support a healthier Kansas City community.

Families will need a deposit, first month's rent, food and hygiene items, clothing, connections to health and other resources, and more. CAC can do this with your help.

Donate funds, nonperishable food, hygiene items, bedding, towels, sheets, pillows, etc. to the CAC Crisis to Stability Project. To give online through PayPal or QGiv, click here, or mail a check or drop off donations to CAC, 10901 Blue Ridge Boulevard, Kansas City, MO 64134. 

Every bit helps CAC work toward stabilized families and an overall healthier community. CAC is a 501(c)3 nonprofit and donations are tax deductible. 

In addition to this direct support, CAC is partnering with the Kansas City Housing Authority, the Hickman Mills School District, Legal Aid and other agencies to meet with Nob Hill families to answer questions, and connect families to resources and housing options. Updated information will be sent when resident meetings are confirmed.
