Hey Emilie Since she's in Raleigh, have her call Wake County Health & Human Services first and that is 919-212-7000 and ask if they have any emergency financial assistance or can refer her to a program that can help keep her housed. I'd also have her contact Alliance Health's Access and Information Center at 800-510-9132. They mainly handle mental health services and we help in other ways with resources for the county.

For rent, also try Raleigh Area Ministries at 919-828-9014, https://www.raleighareaministries.org/)since they sometimes have eviction prevention help or a few bucks to pay some rent. And of course the typical The Salvation Army of Wake County 919-834-6733 if she already has a notice or is behind. If she's only working a couple events a month, she should also apply for NC unemployment if she lost her full-time job, even if she's still getting a little income now from work as sometimes (check with the state of NC) they will help with some funds.

She is experiencing a severe mental health crisis and has recently lost her main source of income, being her full-time job as a server.
She has limited savings and is at risk of not being able to pay rent this month and becoming unhoused. Her family is not available to help during this time, and I live in a different state so I can only do so much to help.
If there are any possible grants that she can apply for, to help her pay her bills this month while she finds another full-time job, I would greatly appreciate that information.
She is a single, young person and is not technically unemployed as she has a position at a local venue where she works by event. Those events happen about twice a month so it’s not enough to cover her bills.
Thank you in advance for your time and your help, in advance.
If speaking on the phone is preferred I will leave my phone number.
Have a nice day!

Hi Marrie,
If it is a mortgage payment assistance you, of course try the lender/bank for a payment plan. Also look into non-profit HUD counseling agencies. But since you need thousands of dollars, we doubt any charity or group in Wake County will help (as that is a lot of money), but you can try. Find the places to try for financial help in Wake County. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... ogram.html

My name is Maggie.
I reside in Wake Forest NC 27587
I am requesting immediate assistance with back payments on my mortgage I was given to the 15th to pay about 3500.00. The bank that owns the land, and the mortgage is Vanderbilt mortgage. I was able to send them 1700.00 last week, however on a fix income that was all I could provide at the time. I requested to the end of the month to send in the rest. I actually got behind and I was making the payments, however the months roll in before I can get back on track. I am returning to work.
If I can just get the mortgage caught up, then I can make the payments. I just need to get caught up and I don't mind making the payments. I was once two months ahead and then something happened, and I got two months behind. I really need some assistance. I just want to get everything caught up and I can handle the rest. I only own about 75,000 left on this house.
I know this is a long story, however, I really need some help. My retirement and SS checks will be enough but since i am behind they are not trying to work with me, Have I been steady since I have this loan, things have happened, and I caught them up and got ahead.
I have been on this property for 35 years and I have worked very hard to make ends meet. I don't have anyone to help me. My credit score went down when I got behind in some things.
Thank you for taking the time to read about my situation and if there is anything anybody can assist me with I would be so grateful
