We are a family of 3 people...my self 55yrs old, my husband 57 yrs old, and my daughter who is 18 and in her senior year of high school...our rent is due on the 1st of November and we have no way to pay it...we are currently receiving Food Stamps/Bridge Card thru DHS...but no other assistance except when we have a utility SO and use the State Emergency Relief...my husband is an Engineer but has had no work for the last 3 months...
We need to know where to turn for help because we have lived here for 4 1/2 yrs and do not want to be evicted...thanks so much...God Bless...

In order to print more specific programs, I need to know your county. Then I can list info on rent assistance programs in your immediate area. Without knowing that my reply is pretty genenric. Try this link http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/get ... _rent.html for information on rent programs and also there you can find links to your specific area.

Are you talking about Savannah Georgia? If so, here is a resource that offers information on the programs and options that you can use. Savannah is in Chatham County Georgia, and agencies and government programs are in place. Some of the options for you to pay bills and living expenses include Eastside Concerned Citizens Inc., which can be reached at 912-484-8582. Probably the place with the most number of grants, debt counseling, and financial assistance programs is the community action agency known as Economic Opportunity Authority for Savannah-Chatham County Area, Inc., and their phone number is (912) 238-2960.

While temp jobs are good for some income, on the site you will also find ways to increase your income from other temp jobs and work from home positions. Be sure you file for unemployment as well, as the extra money will help.
