First of all keep your head up. You've got to believe in yourself. Get a basic low paying job to start. Find a true friend who can put you up temporarily and work your way up. Your drive and desire will pull you through. God bless you.

I was wondering the same thing about how a homeless person has a computer.
Your first problem was quitting your job. You need to get out there and get another one. How did you figure that you were going to be better off if you were getting unemployment? Unemployment benefits are less than what you were bringing home.
Sounds to me like you need to be a little better at your decision making, especially since you are caring for a child.
Get out there and fill out lots of applications, because the answer to your problem is that you need a job, and when you get another one don't quit it.

do no longer abandon your daughter. Jesus loves her and so ought to you. And while this is time for the inevitable abortions, you need to help her available too. it is your accountability as a father. Now i know they're generally high priced, yet Bob's 'Bortions down on course 6 have been given a three-for-a million specific taking place good now, so there is incredibly no excuse.

You quit a job because You were going to be evicted ?
That makes zero sense, you needed the job to get another apartment. What were you thinking ? I guess you forgot you had a child that needed you to have a job so you could get another place to live ? Go back to the old job and see if you can get it back. Apply at the temp agencies as some of them turn into permanent full time if you are a good employee.
Maybe your church will help the daughter until you get stable.

You can go to a shelter like the salvation army. They help you find a job and a place to live. I think they even provide the first months rent. I don't know if in your area there is a Women Together office also they help too.

well its a shame that you cannot get help! thats one reason people are so oppossed to the illegals coming over here to our country cause they could get help in a heartbeat>you are in luck because you have a child.you need to contact some womens shelters or a church related help shelter.........No don,t get on crack please,but you are right you could get help that way but they would also take your child away....Good luck to you! maybe you could look up all the charity places ,there are people that will take you and your child in until you could get on your feet.i do think it was a bad choice to quit your job though at least you would have had a better chance of getting shelter.

Find a shelter and get a job. That is going to be the only way to get out of this. It is true if you quit a job, no matter what the reason, you can not get unemployment. Good luck.

Have you tried WIC (Women Infants and Children)? They should be in your local phone book.
Another source of help may be the Salvation Army. They are a church-based assistance group that's been around for over a hundred years, and they always try to help the needy.

I wish I could help because my family and I were in a very similar situation and when you look for help it's so diffucult to find! Even when we asked for food we only received canned foods from services. Everyone always promotes how helpful they are, but once your in trouble they kick you to the curb. Where are you located?
If you find your nearest church of Jesus Christ and ladder day saints they will help all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They help with everything you need!
They helped me so much! I promise!

If you have a salvation army around, they will allow you to stay, and help you to get a job. Also provide you with things you need, such as food and shelter. Cruel world, I wish you the best. E-mail if you need anything-traci_dawn_roomsburg@yahoo.com
