My name is Heather and I need rent and utilities assistance. I have been teaching out to any program I can find in order to secure help. I am having no luck anywhere.

I have just secured a job after 2 years of being unemployable due to health issues. Now that I had finally gotten the okay from my doctors to work again, my current income is not enough to help get me back in my feet.
I live with my boyfriend, and between us we have 6 children, who do not live with us full time. He had just been laid off of his job at the beginning of the summer.
He had been covering our rent and utilities until recently. I had a couple of odd jobs that helped me to make payments towards our utility bills, but it wasn't enough to keep us from getting shut off once payments had temporarily ceased.
I had gone to LIHEAP several times in the past. But their response was always the same, they can't help unless I can pay half of the past due amount. Unfortunately, that was never possible.
I recently went to the Public Assistance office in my town for help, but they too are saying the same thing as well as it will take up to 30 business days before everything is processed and I could see help.
I am currently 2 months behind on rent, getting close to being shut off for electric, and now a week without gas in our home.
Neither of us has family who are able to assist us with these financial problems at this time. Neither of us are able to secure a loan to help our current situation.
I have received 2 paychecks so far, but all of my income has gone directly toward rent and utilities.
We are in dire need of immediate help. Would you be able to refer me to someone who can help immediately until I can get back on my feet?
Hello.
My fiancée, Bradly and I are new to Monroe and we need both rent and utility assistance. We moved here in April from Covington, La. He had been working for Dupree’s Power Washing Company up until a little more than three weeks ago. He had an accident which resulted in him totaling his company vehicle and as a result, losing his job.
He just got a job back with Premier Products but won't start until later this week.
OUR WATER WILL BE SHUT OFF ON WEDNESDAY 1/23 AND OUR POWER WILL BE SHUT OFF ON FRIDAY 1/25. And rent will be due again by the 5th of November.
Please provide me with some resources that may be able to help with rent and utilities until he has some money coming in.
You can try the community action agency in Central Illinois. By now living with your friend, can't you combine resources/income to cover that rent or utility bills? Also try to apply for LIHEAP in Illinois. Those are just a couple ideas. But also try other referrals to rent programs from the Mid-Central community action agency.
I was homeless just a few days ago. A good friend decided to let me live under her roof. It was a blessing that came right in time with winter here and all. With this blessing also came sadness when I found out she was a 2 months behind in rent and her water is about to get cut off.
She has an 8 year old son and is currently disabled so she can't work. I am currently unemployed myself. I seen this web site while I was online job searching.
Being so close to the holidays I figured to swallow my pride and reach out to anyone who can assist us. She is good people and I’m know if the shoes were on the other feet she would do the same. If there is anything that can be done I we would much appreciate it. Thank you and god bless.
Hi,
Not sure if this is a serious request or not, but try this for many resources in Missouri. Also, there is absolutely no way you should be paying for a wedding until you resolve that long list of financial issues you have. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... grams.html

My partner and I live on DHS. I am on SSDI, $1800/month. I presently pay $700/month + utilities.
We MUST to move to a location in Palm Springs where the rent may be lower/same but utilities included.
We are looking for a 1 bedroom.
Looking for 9/1/15. But our problem is we are so far behind on our rent/utilities, now we have no money to move
and we want to pay the back rent of $2200 plus security deposits. I am disabled with leukemia
and my life partner can't work until change of status is processed, in 4 months.
My landlord told me if I miss the rent for August, "We are OUT"!
So we are out, because, we are so far behind on everything, we have no money for rent.
My partner's mother had breast cancer and we were sending $$ for her treatments.
She passed away.
We need help, Please help.
We need to move.
I am in the process of applying for disability and am overwhelmed with financial responsibities including rent, water, utilities, cable, phone, medical bills, credit card debt, car payment, car insurance, and prescription drug costs since I have no medical insurance. I cannot pay to see doctors I need to in the interim. My husband is in the same position. He has a herniated disc and has lost his insurance at work and cannot be cleared to return to work because he needs surgery and without insurance he needs 25, 000 to repair the disk.
I was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Hypotension Syndrome known as Pots Syndrome.... We truly need help. We do not know where to turn or what to do. Please help. I am praying for a miracle.... Thank you.
Hi, I'm looking for help with rental assistance. I have money coming in for child support for my child and needy family for my cousin who has been dropped off by her mother and left for me to raise. I have several job leads and have been putting in several applications 7 days a week.
I have a job offer to start work on 5-22-14 but before then I will lose everything. Also today I have 2 scheduled interviews. I am 600.dollars in the hole for this month and will be homeless over all this. Just the other day my rent, SMUG, cable and phone was shut off all within hours of each other on the same day. True story. I don't have any resources for help. Please advise. Only reason for being off work is I fell and fractured my back in April and struggled with depression. I was nurse assistant and can no longer lift. I was on disability but it ended before I can even get better. now well but can't seem to get out of this dark hole. I need help I could lose my kids and possibly losing my mind now.
I just got married July 30, 2013. On August 22, 2013 my mother passed away unexpectedly. I am her only surviving family member so the expense has fallen on my shoulders. Started a new job on August 10, 2013. On September 13, 2013 we moved into a two bedroom apartment to accommodate spacing and reduce our monthly rent. On October 3, 2013 my wife lost her job, she is trying desperately to find another but to date has had no luck.
We have just over $700 left on my mothers cremation, which we still have not been allowed to have a memorial for her as the funeral director will not release her until the $1800 is paid in full. We have $485 in rent due, $97 electric past due and our only vehicle is in dire need of $350 in repairs. In a couple of weeks, we will be preparing to send two daughters back to school-supplies, clothes, shoes, and one is in need of eye glasses.
I am not asking for assistance in all of these, but I am begging to please help us with one if not two of them. PLEASE, we just need a chance to get on our feet and a step forward.
Anything you can help with, advise toward another source in San Antonio or give any other assistance in will be greatly appreciated!!
They lay off me, and my mother is the only one paying all the house bills. Now, we owe $900 from the month of February and $1200 from this month May. We heard the owners talking about them taking us out of the apartment. Now, we don’t know what to. We don't have any money at all. My mother is not working as well, we have others bills to pay including the energy and gas which the bill is approximately $1050 plus they send us a disconnection order. Please help us.
We have extensive information on rent, housing, and other assistance in California. Our main link is here, with statewide resources listed, counties, cities, and more. Read up, follow the links to phone numbers, etc. http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/cal ... grams.html
Maybe a program called Homesharing will help you too. This places people into homes or apartments and people just need to help maintain the household. Some more details on that are here as well. Read more.

Currently I am living in Spring Valley,CA with my mother but I would like to move out so I can live closer to my school in El Cajon, It's time to leave the birds nest. Every other month or two not exaggerating my mom either decides she doesn't like something I did or the way I handled something so she kicks me out . I call everyone and anyone (friends no other family in California) looking for place to stay their moms call her she either feels bad or embarrassed and say I can come back then like clock work it happen all over again. I NEED HELP I need a stable home, I'd rather worry about my about my next test than where am I'm gonna stay next week. I would really like to live close to my school then I would be able to get to class earlier and stay late to study or volunteer and not worrying about the bus schedule I could stay as long as I need, Also I could be fully focused on school not worrying about where I'm gonna live. I am applying to jobs EVERYDAY and have an interview tomorrow but as of right now I am unemployed I will work for the grant or scholarship or finical help what ever you can find to help me I 'm not looking for a loan only because I'm not working and don't want to mess up my credit by not being able to pay back the loaner. PLEASE HELP.Thank you
My son was born with cleft lip/palate so I have had a hard time keeping jobs because off all the doctor appointments he has had for the past year. I am so far behind on all my bills, including my rent, its ridiculous and it’s been putting me into depression. So now I finally have to admit that I need a lot of help, not only for me but for my two children. So if you could help me out I would greatly appreciate it. We live in Augusta. Thank you.
Do not put on on application your illness or who many times be hospitalized. It is illegal for an employer to even ask about something like that. Keep applying and trying. In the meantime, try this for Fresno rent assistance. Oftentimes the disabled get priority for funding, so you do have that doing for you. If they have funds to pay out, you may be one of first in line.

I know I am not alone with these problems as so many people need financial help to keep a roof over their head.

Sounds like you need help with various needs, such as bills, rent, debts, and other expenses. I think the most comprehensive place to look is the main site. If you need help for various expenses or information on charities, etc. view the programs and find assistance with bills. There are literally hundreds of non-profits, phone numbers, government programs, and other resources listed there on the site. Public assistance, food stamps, and much more.

Here is a listing of assistance programs in Indiana. One of the neat options is the fact you can call your local town. State laws in Indiana require that each town provide emergency financial assistance for paying health care, prescriptions, utility and heating bills, and other forms of aid. http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/ind ... grams.html
