Landlord denied me apartment from credit issues and need options

Hello
My name is Renee and I’m desperately needing some help and information. I applied for a apartment that I currently share with roommate this week because they are moving August 1st, and was denied due to credit and unknown to me I have a eviction from October 2023. I am livid with this, I had the ERAP approved to pay my rent and then some due to pandemic.
My lease was also expiring so I moved out and was completely out October 1st, I lived out of my car from October -March, I never went to court, I never received any bills from the apartment, and did not know they were trying to evict me because I had the assistance approved it was just running behind. Now I am facing homeless again within a month because I did not know this until the complex ran a rental screening and I did not know the landlord could deny me based on credit. I am at loss and do not know what to do. I’m unable to get assistance because my income is to much. I do not qualify for programs because I’m single. It is just the low credit issues. I need help even being homeless. I do not have a vehicle at this time, so living in my car is not a option. I’m judged on paper and no one will give me a chance. I work 48 hours a week and cannot get ahead. The apartment was in the wrong and I should not have a eviction on my record. And I do not know what to do. I’d it even possible to rent again? I’m emailing all I can for information on legal help and renting. Thank you
