Got a suggestion that may help if that fear turns into panic. It is called 211. United Way has the best resources available. Some of the money they get is from our hard earned tax dollars, some from their yearly drive from people who donate 3% of their pay. Either way, your money went into these social programs. They have lists of social service organizations as well as churches that can help you with rent, utilities, food, eye exams and glasses, ID's, birth certificates, mortgages, prescriptions...etc. So call 211 or goggle United Way 211. Do not wait...lots of people are needing the help these days. I hope that you look into this. Because of these people, my deposit for my new apartment was covered and part of my first months rent. I have gone to a foodbank to make the groceries last. I hope this helps.
