Re: Looking for Idaho Falls assistance programs

I'm a single mother of 2 girls near Idaho falls. My girls are still in school and have no help from their father. We have been living in a camper outside of my daughter’s home, we have to go inside for everything, as there's no water, bathroom, basically a bed that's it, this has been for the last year, and we are split up as a family because there's not enough room in the camper for the 3 of us. We planned on staying a couple of months, until tax time then we could move. The kids father claimed my girls on his taxes and collected over 7000 in tax money and gave the girls nothing. We are now going to court for this. I have applied, paid fees for applications, and been denied every time because of my credit, and because I have a rough background. It is nearly winter; we can't stay in the camper any longer. We fight constantly, depression, my mental status is truly affected, we need our own place, but we desperately need help with rent and deposit. I work full time but barely make enough to survive let alone save for a new place of our own again. We have been accepted to move into a house in Idaho falls, FINALLY AFTER A YEAR OF TRYING AND TRYING, we need help ASAP so we may get our lives back together again and have a home. There's no emergency help near Idaho falls and we are desperate, desperate, desperate for this help. Please help us if you can with anything available. We would like to get moved next weekend. Thank You for your time.
