I have.a suggestion, I know a little about this stuff where I used to volunteer at the detox facility for the low income people that did not have proper medical insurance to pay such facilities though they were in great need of medical detox. Many of these people had squandered what resources they did have, and one does not go out overnight even if you find a job and equate that with a place to be living at which is proper. Go, or get in touch with your local with your local Department of Social Services, explain your situation and they should shuffle you in as quickly as possible. By federal law, backed up by most states, there is emergency housing, and they can try to get you onto disability services. This is done on a need basis, many don't even know about these programs. If you qualify you can be placed in section-A housing and get social security disability or SSDI disbursed rapidly to you. I never dealt with the facet at the treatment center, but often talked with the counsellors that did. In the large city I live next to is a conglomeration of many churches, that house and feed the homeless. It used to be (My Cities) area rescue ministries,but now is know by a different acronym. At the end of every fiscal year, they are usually in a budget shortfall, I have paid this for them several times. Between off of that, I would think they could get you in some housing, and enough income to support yourself.These kinds of things are the kind of things are not the things I never find spending my taxes on. Most large metropolitan areas have similar setups.It Is nothing short of obscene of how wealthy this country is yet people find themselves in situations like this. It is one of the things that makes me so made at the place I put my life on all the time. You just get connected with the right people and let them work their fast tracking magic. As wealthy as this country is, and there are those such as yourself find themselves in this situation, It is nothing short of disgrace. Contact your local healthcare department and get them to fast track you in. The smaller city I live close to has a program they will pay for you a hotel or a motel room, as they process this out. So, sorry, and in this the country I put my life on the line for more than once is failing you, and many others. I would try this approach and not sure why councillors at the hospital are not helping you do this or pointing you that way. The best of luck to you, if you lived near me I would help you.
