Hi Jamie
That is great you have been trying some places in Pekin, including the Salvation Army and others. But we have many other options listed as well for rent payment help in that area, and some may help with the housing authority too as noted here https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... e_pro.html

Hello my name is Jamie and I live in the Pekin housing Authority in Pekin Illinois. I am in need of emergency rental assistance. I am almost 2 months late due to a vehicle situation and thinking that tazwood would help me out but they don't help people who already live in the housing. I got a job at CPL months ago and they immediately upped my rent to 700, took away my medical card and took all of my snap benefits away.
My vehicle broke down and I spent hundreds trying to fix it only to have it continue to break down and it's now undrivable. I need help with rental assistance I do have an eviction notice already. I'm not sure what else to do or who else to go thru. I've called the salvation army and a few churches and am still waiting for replies. If you could please help me I would be so grateful. I do have an 11 year old in the house as well. Thank you for your time.
