I have tried every resource in my town for emergency housing. 2 years my husband and I have been homeless and on wait list 2 years and we are still number 16 as of this month. We’re living in a camper in back yard of friend, which, is falling apart and rain is coming through roof. No hot water, not safe.
Please help. Thank you sincerely.
My rapid rehousing agency won’t even start an application for me until I am on the street or in my car. I have been staying with my mom for a few nites in a 1 bdrm tiny house and sleeping in the bathroom on a sofa cushion …I can’t stay here but a couple of days because her landlord doesn’t want me to…I am 56 and living with HIV and am on SSDI .I told the social worker all of this and she won’t help me until I am literally on the street…I thought u were trying to help people avoid homelessness. I have never been homeless and am not interested in starting now I have been trying to get help for months since I knew I was being evicted from my home of 11and 1/2 years through no fault of my own. The owner died and they had to sell the property so I was out. Anyway I have been searching for help for months and no one will help …I am at the end of my rope and seriously considering suicide to ease the pain of not knowing what to do and burdening those around me.Is this how the system is supposed to work?
I’m currently homeless living in my Vehicle with my partner and our two children in California . I was Wrongfully Evicted from my Local PHA . They said it was an At fault just cause Eviction and are saying I owe them $10,659 for “Move out Charges” which I obviously will never be able to pay nor should I have too and they know that . That’s why I live in PHA I’m very low income and PHA unfortunately is all I can afford being on Welfare . They completely ruined my whole life in an instant . After living there for 7 years never missed a bill payment nothing . I begged and pleaded at my court date to not continue with the Unlawful Detainer Eviction because I have kids and they need a safe secure roof over their heads it’s not fair to them . They Evicted me for Lease Violations that I didn’t even know I had . Also I’m a DV Victim from a previous relationship years ago and I told them that and gave them my police report and they just nudged it off and didn’t give me the resources I needed . Instead they gave me lease violations one of those violations was for the arrest of my ex abuser that happened on their property and for my neighbors calling the police to my apartment I also got violated for that too . Both those violations were from the same incident . Is that even legal?? Apparently so because they got away with it . My whole County is Corrupt . Nobody follows protocol , funds are unaccounted for and nobody has any answers as to why ? All these grants that are supposed to be going to housing and helping the Homeless is not going to that at all . Instead they unaccounted for meaning money is being granted with nothing to show for it . Something needs to be done .
I am 67 handicap disabled due to my disability I was just horrified to learn that Social Security took all my monthly money back until after September 2023.
They just screwed me big time and I live with a service animal
They took the money back because they felt that when I was on disability it overlapped, well how does a person with a service dog now how am I going to survive.
I am disgusted because so far all these organizations do not help and all the phone numbers and 211 were worthless I’ve left messages I’ve tried calling so what is it you are going to help me with I’d like to know
This is horrible abd I’m not a street person
I need help now before I’m homeless and not those stupid motel vouchers that’s drug city
I want your organization to help now before I go homeless
I need it now
You should be able to qualify for emergency assistance if you haven’t already.
Try calling to 211 and notifying them that you DO NOT HAVE SAFE, CLEAN, HOUSING. This technically makes you homeless or facing homeless and therefor a candidate for emergency funding from EHV, Rapid rehousing, RAD or other programs. CLICK HERE for more info on how to get emergency housing fast.
Contact your PHA and ask or clock here to learn about Emergency Housing Vouchers. EHV
Hi my name is Renee. I moved to Florida to be close to the only family member i have left, my father. I moved from Nj bc my mom passed,my daughter passed, and i was in a bad DV situation. Im 44 and never lived with my father. I came here only for more verbal and physical abuse. His wife has made me use the bathroom outside for weeks at a time. My father is only home 1 to 2 weekends a month. She forces me to sleep outside and has made my mental status drastically go down hill. Can someone please help me find emergency housing. Thank you

If you know of anyplace to get vouchers, please let me know.
