ell you may find help with both needs. For If worried about next meal in San Diego, then look into local food pantries or banks. As far as the rent, security deposits, or housing, find information on San Diego rental assistance programs and agencies. There are options and programs like the Housing Authority of the County of San Diego (phone (858) 694-4801) and/or the San Diego Housing Commission. Both offer low income housing, emergency aid, homeless prevention resources, and much more.

I am looking for another job right now. I have rent that is due on the first of each month. I do not want to be put out, I have no where to go. Being on my own is very hard. I get depressed at times, not knowing where my next meal is coming from, but if I can keep a roof over mt head then I will be okay. My unemployment has run out, and now our manager decided to make up leave. They want to upgrade and increase the rent. We only have hubby's disability monthly payments of $630 and some savings. We have to move by December 31st. But we don't have enough proof of income. We are waiting to apply for SSI, but that will take some time. We live in San Diego, CA

That California department of jobs and services is not your only option in Los Angeles California. There are many other options, agencies, and charities to call for eviction prevention, help with security deposits and emergency rental funds. Find those options here at Los Angeles rent assistance. There are options like Unity Of Life Foundation, which is a local non-profit. Another government option is County of Los Angeles Department of Public Social Services (562) 908-6603. Phone numbers and details can be found on resource/link.

Here are organizations in Contra Costs and Pittsburg California.

They focus on low income, working poor, and the unemployed in the area. Some of hte places can even help you find a new job, or acquire new skills, so you can therefore increase your income and have more cash on hand to pay your bills and living expenses.
