Check your county for assistance..sometimes called neighborhood service centers..There are also "block grants" that are funded with a type of FEMA funds..usually ST. Vincent De Paul Society, Salvation Army organizations like that give out the funds for help with rent/ utilities and such..also look under homeless assistance...there are funds to prevent a person from becoming homeless..again they help with rent and utilities..Please let me know if that helps if I knew what state you were in I could probably tell you exactly where to go..but I'll be prayin for you. |

Call your areas united ways first call for help and they should be able to point you in the right direction. You need to do a housing search and apply for subsidized houseing. The process is very involved and it would be better if you have a housing advocate to help you along. When I did mine, I had just left a major city with big resources and a housing advocate from there helped me along. If I had been living where I am now, a housing advocate wouldnt have been available. You are looking at a lot of work. Good luck with the search, sending prayers to you. |
