Care Packages

Life can shift quickly. Families may find themselves stepping into unexpected caregiving roles, rebuilding after disruption, or navigating periods of instability with very little notice.

SonderNest Care Packages provide practical, dignity-centered support for parents and caregivers during these moments, offering a foundation of essentials when families need it most.

Who This Program Is For

Care packages support parents and caregivers in Clackamas County, Oregon, who are navigating hardship, transition, or unexpected change.

Families may include:

  • Caregivers experiencing emergency or unexpected custody changes

  • Families facing housing instability, financial hardship, or medical challenges

  • Parents rebuilding after crisis or disruption

  • Caregivers stepping into new or expanded roles with limited resources

    Support is offered without judgment and without unnecessary barriers.

How Care Packages Work

Essential Needs Boxes are curated collections of new or gently used items designed to meet immediate, everyday needs.

Contents vary depending on availability and family needs, but boxes may include:

  • Clothing for infants or children

  • Hygiene and personal care items

  • Baby or child essentials

  • Comfort items or practical household basics

Boxes are assembled based on availability and may be distributed through:

  • Partner organizations

  • Community referrals

  • Targeted distributions during times of heightened need

Each box is assembled with care, respect, and an understanding that every family’s situation is different.
