Due to my resent medical condition I have not been able to work for 6 months. My wife, 13 year old son and I have been living off her income only. I have tried to receive assistance from HUD Section 8, but they are not even accepting applications right now. If anyone has any suggesting, advice or other programs that provide assistance? Please let me know thanks.

For utility and gas bill help in Nevada, try Southwest Gas, Energy Share Program. It is an emergency fund that was set up that provides direct assistance and cash grants to qualified individuals with unexpected financial difficulties, such medical emergency or loss of a job. Nevada Power offers the Project REACH (Relief through Energy Assistance to Prevent Customer Hardships) program which may be able to help with energy bills.

For rent help in Nevada, try Lutheran Social Services of Nevada 702.639.1730. They do offer Rental assistance, but it is on a limited basis only. Also try your local community action agency.

Here is more info on Nevada assistance programs.

I am a single mother needing help to make my living situation habitable for my son and I. I recently escaped an abusive situation in Las Vegas Nevada and my son and I are living in a camper parked in the back yard of a friends home. She has said that I can hook up the appropriate outlet needed to properly provide electric and water to the camper so that we have our own utilities to run air conditioning and heating. Right now we have an extension cord running to the camper but we have no air condition or heat for the winter and no water running into the camper. We have to constantly come into my friends home to cook, use the restroom, and shower and try to cool off since it has been so miserably hot and it causes me to have asthma attacks.
