If you are low income and live in your own house or live in a mobile home you can get help with your rent from the government.

You need to be really low income and it could take years but it will be well worth it to put your name on the waiting list now. If you are a senior and disabled you go to the head of the list.

If you are disabled and able to take care of yourself, you can go to the head of the list.

It is well worth it for you to call 211 if you have this wonderful information line in your area for social services. If not get on your computer and start researching where you find out this information.

If you are a senior citizen go to the Senior Centers in your area. The Senior Centers should have this information.

With the assistance of this government money you can stay in your own home.

If you do not own your own home or mobile home you will be able to move into your very own apartment.

When you receive the phone call or letter saying you have finally made it to the head of the list, make sure you make an immediate appointment and bring all your necessary paperwork. If this is complicated for you have a family member or friend help you.

Once you get through all the government red tape you will be happy you stuck in there and now have breathing space after your rent is paid.

If you live in a Mobile Home Park and the office staff says we do not accept your paperwork for government help on your rent, you can receive the check in the mail.

What the office staff is really saying is they are too lazy to fill out the necessary forms for you every month.
