Oh dear Beads -- The Dept. of Human Services CANNOT LET you live on the streets! They have GOT to help you somehow!!! Keep asking them HOW you are supposed to find money for the first months rent PLUS the deposit!

There are SUBSIDIZED HOUSING developments for people like you who cannot afford housing. They are based on how much you make! There should be something like that near you. And the DHS should see to it that YOU get a house like that! TALK TO them again! Ask them if there is housing available for someone who is on Social Security! There HAS to be.

Please let us know, ok? You CAN'T live on the streets! Dear Lord, they've got to help you! I pray they do! God bless you Beads, and keep us posted, ok? Hugs, Lee

Dear Lee,
subsidized housing would be great but their is just oen little hitch...........beads has outstadnign consumers energy bill (gas & electric on same bill) of like $600.00. this is not my fault. I pay my budget plan bill of $192.00 evry month. but I live in 40-year old trailer what is iimpossibel to heat. the way budget plan is set up I will amek up the difference over the summer months. but subsidized housing will no let me move in unless that bill iis paid in full first. Lee we gonna be lucky to come up with first month rent plus deposit. no way beadies can pay off lectric & gas bill too. not amed outta money. this really does suck. we in way over our head hear........................................

In subsidized housing the heat and gas are PAID for you, from what I understand! I shouldn't think that that would make a difference would it?? Maybe it does, but I don't see how. If the government is PAYING for the heat and lights, what do they even have to know that you're in the apartments???

I don't understand all this. Talk to DHS again and see what they say. You MIGHT not have to pay all that IF YOU HAVEN'T GOT IT!!! Some people just plain don't have it! I dont see how they can throw people out into the streets because they don't have money! Talk to them again and see what happens. Maybe it's a lost cause. I don't know. Are there any shelters around you? That's better than nothing I guess. I know they're pretty bad, but it's better than being on the streets, where you'll get mugged, or worse!

God bless you beads, and keep us posted. Hugs, Lee

sorry Lee..........around hear subsidized housing only pays far heat, not electric....most places anyway...............ummmmmmmmmmmm we keep trying we have not gived up yet
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[beadlady29]

btw...................y do u think theior is so many homeless ppls. in thisn state??!!

[liveforfish]

A shelter isn't the worst thing in the world. Sorry to hear you're going through this right now. Are there cheap hotels/motels where you live? What about the YMCA?

[beadlady29]

beads will most likely nnot go thru that route..........shelters are like so stressful on beads becuz of all the commotion...........we looking to cut down on our stress............also cant handle moveing twiced much less find ppls. to help....................we do appreceiate all of ye all's suggestions,,,,,,,,,,have not totally ruled out womens shelter as last resoert ......but we r hopeign that with this PC funds drive it will be enuf to help us get our foot in the door where we want to go..THEY don't expect us to pay entire electric bill it aint subsidozd housign

[beadlady29]
