Mayor of Rome: One Clear Directory of Support for Rome's Families

Pregnant women and families in Rome who need help often do not know where to turn. Support for housing, counseling, and material needs exists, but it is scattered across different offices, organizations, and websites. Many women facing an unexpected pregnancy, financial hardship, or housing insecurity simply do not know what help is available or how to access it.

This confusion costs time that families in crisis do not have. A mother looking for emergency housing should not have to search through multiple city departments and unrelated websites to find a phone number. A woman seeking counseling during a difficult pregnancy should not have to guess which office can help her today.

We ask the Mayor of Rome to publish one clear, public directory bringing together all practical support available to pregnant women and families in the city. This directory should include:

- Housing assistance and emergency shelter options
- Counseling services for pregnant women and families
- Material help, including food, baby supplies, and financial support

The directory should be easy to find, easy to read, and kept up to date, so that any woman or family in Rome can quickly see what help exists and how to reach it. It does not need to create new services. It simply needs to make existing support visible and accessible in one place.

Every day a family spends searching for help is a day they are not receiving it. A single, well-publicized directory would remove confusion, save time, and ensure that no pregnant woman or family in Rome is left without knowing where to turn.

We ask the Mayor to commit to publishing this directory, in a clear and accessible format, as a practical step to support pregnant women and families across the city.

We urge the Mayor of Rome to act on this request and make this information available to every resident who needs it.
