Hello again

See if there is one around in your area.

For a growing number of persons faced with losing their independence and struggling to keep housing costs within their budget, shared housing is an affordable and viable alternative.

A home sharer might be a senior citizen, a person with disabilities, a working professional, someone at-risk of homelessness, a single parent, an AIDS patient, or simply a person wishing to share his or her life and home with others. For these people, shared housing offers companionship, affordable housing, security, mutual support and much more.

Shared living has been known to enhance the health and well-being of all people and allows people to remain independent in their home. Home Sharing also preserves neighborhoods, creates an affordable housing and saves housing and healthcare dollars.

Hello

I am sorry things took a turn for the worse. Below are some sources for food, shelter and hopefully job training. I have looked for all possible agencies

Eligibility Requirements for TANF

In order to be determined eligible to receive TANF benefits, the following criteria must be met by the members of the assistance unit (family):

Age: A child must be less than 18 years of age (19 years if s/he is a full-time student).

Application for other benefits: A TANF applicant/recipient must apply for and accept other benefits (Unemployment Compensation, Workman’s Compensation, Supplemental Security Insurance (SSI), Child Support, etc) for which s/he may be eligible.

Citizenship: A recipient must be a citizen of the U.S. or a lawful resident alien.

Deprivation:  A child must be deprived due to:

   1. Continued absence from the home of at least one parent
   2. Physical or mental incapacity of at least one parent
   3. Death of a parent

In a two parent family in which both parents are able-bodied, deprivation is established if one parent has a “recent connection to the workforce.”

Enumeration: All assistance unit members must have or apply for a Social Security number.

School Attendance:  All children ages 6 through 17 who have not graduated from high school or who have not received a certificate of high school equivalency must attend school and have satisfactory attendance.

Immunization: All preschool children must be immunized.

Income: An assistance unit’s countable, net income must be below certain established limits that are adjusted for the number of persons in the AU. A family must meet the financial criteria to receive TANF.  For example, a family of three (mother and two children) must have a gross income below $784 a month and countable assets of less than $1,000.

Lifetime Limits: Receipt of cash assistance is limited to 48 months in a lifetime.  The limit may be extended if it is determined that an extension is justified due to certain hardships, including domestic violence and physical or mental incapacity.

Paternity: The AU must cooperate in the establishment of paternity.  The paternity of a child must be established at application and whenever a child is added to an active case. 

Work Requirement:  All adult recipients have a work requirement, and are required to participate in work activities and training for at least 30 hours weekly.  These work activities help recipients gain the experience needed to find a job and become self-sufficient.

Cooperation with Office of Child Support Services is a requirement for receiving TANF benefits.

Note:  A family receiving TANF for ten months might not receive increased cash assistance for the birth of additional children.
