In Louisiana, try the Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program. It goes by the name of LHFA. The state government of Louisiana has setup a housing assistance program where eligible state residents are provided free housing vouchers that can to help then with paying for basic housing needs. The free housing voucher can provide eligible state residents with more housing opportunities and choices, such as rent and maybe even mortgage aid.

Hello, my family recently moved into a new apartment in New Orleans Louisiana after living in a hotel room for 5 months. My girlfriend was working part-time then the job didn't need her anymore. So she went on unemployment which the government shutdown. She started working at Macy's but they were barely giving her hours. I work full time at a moving company and now she just had a interview at Target and is waiting for orientation to start. In the meantime, we half of June rent and need help this one time. We are hard working people who fell into a little hole and need help out please.

New Orleans agencies do offer financial help for rent and set up costs. Since you are now working (congratulations on that) and you have another interview, that will definitely help your application. As it shows you are trying to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty. Even if you need to go back to the hotel, the homeless prevention programs may help you with both rent and a voucher for the room. There are many rent assistance programs in New Orleans to try to apply at for support.
