Have you heard of the Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program? It was created from stimulus funds from the Obama stimulus program. It can provide up to 18 months of money for rent, utility security deposits funds, counseling, debt and credit repair, and other programs. Mostly community action agencies run it. Here is more info, and find who to call.

I have stage four cancer and not able to work, I also was just told (6) months ago I have a very bad heart valve and that also needs to be replaced at some very near point. I am 55 years old and have nothing to support my family. Eight years ago I donated my right lung to my only son which extended his life about 6 more years. Whatever money we had went to that situation. I need money for bills.

I am looking for any kind of assistance that might be available for my Sister. She has had surgery to remove her colon and continues to be hospitalized for infections. She had been a real estate agent in the Milwaukee area but has not been able to work for about three years. My wife and I have loaned over $60,000 to help her get by but we are unable to loan her any more. We have borrowed most of the money to help her. She has dealt with a lot of pain because she has not been able to buy pain medication. She does not have any assets other than her furniture. We are letting her use a car that we purchased. She has been very despondent and can’t seem to catch a break.

If you think this is something you could help with or direct me to the right place, I would appreciate any help you could offer.

So is it more medical type care you are looking for, or general financial aid in Milwaukee? There are places you can call, and they may be able to address the need for medication too. But if she truly has no hope in working, then then best option may be long term disability. But find different options in the region, and learn more on assistance in Milwaukee.

Hi
I am I need of help badly. My husband just left me and our 2 year old son yesterday. He left us with $10.00 and took all the rest if the money we had for rent so now I don't have anyway to pay the $800.00 rent due as I am a stay at home mom ( until I find a job now). My husband was the worker. I don't know what to do I don't have a vehicle or a phone and only have internet for maybe 2-3 more days in order to get some sort of help. If I don't pay the rent me and my son have no were to go I'm so scared. I'm hoping someone will have good news for me.
Please get back to me with any information that could help me.
Thank you.

Hello. I am the single mother of a 2 year old little boy. I am in need of help with rental assistance, medical bills and electricity. I work but I am living pay check to pay check. I have tried to save money but something always happens. My car breaks down or some other expense comes about.
My dream this year was to purchase a home for my son and me. But with him being hospitalized three times this year my savings has decreased to less than fifty dollars. He has asthma so it is tough to keep up with the daily bills I have for him, his asthma medication and even putting food on the table. I need help. Please help us find a way.
