Are there any local, state, or federal programs that help with paying rent, moving costs, deposits or anything like that. Im really trying to find the resources to move before I'm stuck trying to find a storage unit and some kind of shelter.
I lost my job in April when the restaurant I was working in closed. Since then my husband and I have been struggling to make ends meet. Halfway through December while facing the reality that we didn't have the money to have a Christmas this year, we got a notice saying our lease would no longer be renewed because we had difficulty paying our rent and were sometimes late. We are now desperately trying to pay our last month's rent here, as well as the power, in addition to trying to find some place to go, which is proving difficult. If anyone can help us, please do. I will gladly volunteer my time in whatever way I can as means of gratitude. Thank you for your help.
