I am a single dad of three girls and I also care provide for my mother who is seventy five and has a full blown stroke. About a year and a half ago I lost my job and we went several months without paying rent. I managed to get a new job but the salary was not nearly what I was making before, so instead of gaining ground we were loosing ground. My landlord who was willing to work with us in the beginning couldn’t take it anymore. What happened was my mother became very ill and I was forced to take the family medical leave act, in doing so this was an unpaid medical leave, and then to make things worse I was released from my position all together after filling for an extension. We have been served with a sixty day notice to pay all back rent and vacate the property, with no income. I am very worried about what will happen to my family, next to mention PGE is going to be shut off if we don’t come up with 2500 dollars. I am sick to my stomach and scared to death over this whole thing and don’t know what to do, I am asking for any and all help I can get!! THANK YOU.

I am unemployed. I have been looking for work every where. I have just started school as well in a one year program to try to help better myself but still am not having any luck with work. They are ready to evict me out of the park I live in and do not want to lose my home.
I bought my home in 2007 when my parents passed away and can not bare the thought of losing the home that they provided me. My home is paid off but I still pay lot rent. I am $820.00 behind in rent facing shut off notice after shut off notice. I have no problem working for the money but don't know where to turn anymore. Can you please help me or direct me in a way to keep from losing my home.
