Kids with mental illness

I'm disabled and unable to work and my health is going way down with medical bills due. I'm being evicted from the house I’m renting. I have no income and can't afford rent or medical at the moment or mental health care for kids. I have six children and two with a mental illness. I haven't received any child support in the last five years. I have no family members that can help me and my children. I moved into this house with my father with the intention to be his care taker. But, he decided to move and left me no choice but to stay here. I've only been paying half rent and I haven't been able to qualify for any programs due to the lack of a job. Could you please help me and my children with health and bills or can you direct me in the right direction so I can find some help. Thank you for your time.

The CHIP program is a good option for kids up to teenagers. It covers all sorts of medical care, even a mental illness component. Good for you in seeking help, as the earlier the kid(s) gets the help from therapists and specialists the better. They may need to try different counselors too as well as medications. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... ce_pr.html
