Where Can I Get Emergency Rent Assistance?
Each state has housing assistance for families who experience housing instability. Most importantly, rental assistance programs help the elderly, disadvantaged, and disabled in the community. These programs use emergency funds to pay rent and late utilities directly to your provider.

My wife (Tina) and I got put out of an apartment for being late with rent, so we had to put our belongings in Storage (Rental) and stay in a hotel until we would have the money for another apartment. Our car broke down and was not worth repairing so it got towed to the junk yard. Since then I lost my job because of no buses running to work or getting a ride. Tina is still working thanks to her co-workers giving her rides back and forth. We are at the point of being put out in the street.

Hello Pamela: You niece has a challenge before her, but step by step, it will get better, if she takes the help available. She should put her name on the list for public housing. All programs require you to look for your own place. When you find something they help with rent deposits etc. If she has not done so, she should apply for public assistance, SNAP and WIC for the children. Once she gets settled, she can apply for assistance with childcare that will free here up to go to school or gain a skill or degree so she can eventually care for herself and her family. Good luck. Your a good aunt.

Hello Dolores. I am sorry you are experiencing these difficulties. The first place I would go is to the landlord. He probably has other properties or knows someone who does. Especially you gave him money and he did not do what you paid him for. If that does not work, see if family can take you in; or consider a shelter temporarily.
I am in need of finding a place to move to, Nov 13th 2015 the house next door owned by my landlord burnt down, and took my electric with it , I paid one bill for both houses, Now I traded my car for a generator so we could have electric. that’s costing 30 a day for gas, but code enforcement came and served me papers saying that the mobile home I’m living in is not permitted to even be here, So I called my landloard and gave him 180 to help pay the permits, a total of 853, that was 2 weeks ago and he never went and paid for the permits, code enforcement says we have till December 30, 2015 or were going to be locked out , I live with my boyfriend and his 2 children ages 9 & 12, and 4 dogs, We pay 650 a month rent , and its noy easy to find something to rent for that amount, We had no christmas no tree no gifts, because the generator takes up all our money Is there any help for us ,?

Hello Maria, I know medical bills can quickly pile up. Try not to panic. Hospitals are more than willing to work with you for a payment as little as $25 dollars. As long as you make payments as scheduled, they will not report it on your credit report. If you need continual medical treatment, ask your hospital about applying for sliding scale, or hospital aid. If approved, you will pay only a portion of you bills according to your income. Good luck.

Lee, thank you so much for your comment and your words of inspiration to me and those who will read this. I was very encouraged by your prophetic words and prayer. God bless you too Lee, and please come back again! You are a blessing!
GOD BLESS YOU for your posting. This will help many “desperate folks” in need of a little relief. Myself included. You are correct in the fact that it is up to the individual in a crisis situation to “SEEK OUT & INQUIRE” because even though there are programs that will help, they will not advertise them. In fact, I experienced this first hand. I was actually lied to about a program that was available, & the entity that runs the program, ( a supervisor at that), claimed the never heard about it. Now because my printer is out of ink, (I AM DISABLED & IN A WHEELCHAIR), IT is up to me to go to the library, look up the website that I found the program in, & take it back to this ” FEDERAL AGENCY”, & Show them the program exists. Yes my friends, you will have to go through many obsticals, but the help is out there. What bothers me is I understand why these programs are not advertised, but for people to lie & say they never heard of such programs when its their job to help, thats just wrong. Anyway, I suggest that as you go through your struggle, ” PRAY FOR THE LORD JESUS CHRIST” to give you guidance.IF YOU KNOW HIM, YOU ALREADY KNOW ” HIS TIMING IS JUST & PERFECT”, HE WILL PROVIDE! HE LOVES YOU & WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU. STAND STRONG ON YOUR FAITH, FOR HE SEEKS OUT THE DOWNTRODDEN, THE POOR, THE HURT, & THE LIKE, & BY HIS STRIPES, YOU WILL BE HEALED & PROVIDED FOR. ALSO, ” DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO ME! THAT Will happen for whatever reason. Thats the enemy (satan) trying to get pleasure out of your suffering & circumstances. REFUSE TO LET him TAKE PLEASURE IN THIS.THE MORE YOU PRAY & SEEK THE LORDS HELP, REMEMBER, THATS EXACTLY WHAT CHRIST IS THERE FOR!! HE LOVES YOU, HE KNOWS THE NUMBERS OF HAIRS ON YOUR HEAD, DONT YOU THINK HE KNOWS YOUR SUFFERING CIRCUMSTANCES?? I am in those circumstances myself right now, but I know, by faith alone, THE LORD WILL PROVIDE A WAY. JUST WHEN YOU ARE READY TO GIVE UP, ” STOP RIGHT THERE” PAUSE, & ASK THE LORD FOR GUIDANCE. I PRAY ON THIS DAY THAT THE ” LORD JESUS CHRIST” will not only provide an avenue for my circumstances, but also for each of you who took the time to read this. Finally, I want you to know that I did not intend to even mention CHRIST in this, I was looking for help myself,& the “HOLY SPIRIT” came upon me to share these words with you. Thats how GOD WORKS! HE takes one persons suffering & turns it into good for others. Thanks for your time & “GOD BLESS YOU”!!! L.K.
