I am in Delray Beach Palm Beach County and need help

Post by Tariq Al-Sayed »

I'm on short term disability making $720 a week. I had rotator cuff surgery on May 22nd, 2025. I did not qualify for the FMLA due to not having the number of hours needed. I was laid off on April 13th, 2018, which I have lost my insurance. I do qualify for the Cobra program insurance, but I do not have the $438 to pay monthly. I still have 6 weeks of therapy which is not going so well. I'm still in great pain doing the therapy. As of right now I'm unable to work or go back to work but as I said I have been laid off from the job I was at. Wondering what kind of assistance, I could receive like paying my rent.
I tried to sign up for information, but the form would not accept my email. Here is my information.
Prudence
Delray Beach, Fla
I am currently unemployed. I worked until I was downsized 5/2024 when I was 82. I now have health issues, but if I can get this missing tooth replaced then. Denture revised, I'll be glad to go back to work if I can find a job. I’m a writer/editor.
Thank you for any information you may be able to supply.

Hi Charnelle
We have programs listed for Palm Beach listed above, but another clearinghouse to try for grants and maybe RX vouchers is the Palm Beach County community action.

Hello good afternoon, my name is Charnelle, I live in West Palm Beach, Florida.
I was referred by my psychologist, he is also in West Palm Beach, Florida, to send a message to this email address.
I am requesting help to pay my rent and medications, because I am currently unable to work due to physical problems caused by multiple sclerosis, and I am currently also battling to receive social security disability benefits.
Any assistance and attention in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Good evening,

Hi,
Car payment help is rare. Maybe try non-profit credit counseling or a payment plan with your lender.
As far as rent help in West Palm Beach FL, we have many programs listed you can try. Look here for them. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... tance.html

I am in need of help in West Palm Beach. I have missed work and had surgery in September and I am in need of 2800.00 to get caught up on my rent and car payment.
I am behind for 2,500. For rent and 350. For car payment
My landlords said if I don't pay by the 18th I have to be out by the 18th of July.
Can you please help me to get 2500.00 for rent.
I asked family and friends they can't help. I tried to get loans but my credit is bad and with them doing inquiries my score is really low.

Good morning , I was able to find the program list on line and was wondering if you'd be able to point me in the right direction for rental and energy assistance. I live here in West Palm Beach, FL. My phone number is listed if you have any questions.

Do not give up on the job search. Keep looking. As far as housing programs, food for your 2 year old, and other support, look here.

There are tons of organizations in Palm Beach to try for help.

I need help -- immediate concern is paying rent, electric. I also need help getting diapers, wipes, maybe even a gas card to go to the agencies -- but the immediate need is to get my rent taken care of, I have no money and I am single mother of 2 boys. I don't have access to a phone, on my last 5 dollars of gas, I do have email. I am so overwhelmed and have never been in a situation like this before.

We do have extensive information on rent assistance in Palm Beach Florida. Some programs may have money, others shelter, and almost all have case management and social services. Section 8 will often have a waiting list, as you indicate. Click here for the resources and ideas for that part of Florida.
